Famous quotes containing the words popular and/or culture:

    “O, popular applause! what heart of man
    Is proof against thy sweet, seducing charms?”
    —William Cowper (1731–1800)

    “The best hopes of any community rest upon that class of its gifted young men who are not encumbered with large possessions.... I now speak of extensive scholarship and ripe culture in science and art.... It is not large possessions, it is large expectations, or rather large hopes, that stimulate the ambition of the young.”
