Local Error

Famous quotes containing the words local and/or error:

    “Eclecticism is the degree zero of contemporary general culture: one listens to reggae, watches a western, eats McDonald’s food for lunch and local cuisine for dinner, wears Paris perfume in Tokyo and “retro” clothes in Hong Kong; knowledge is a matter for TV games. It is easy to find a public for eclectic works.”
    —Jean François Lyotard (b. 1924)

    “It is a general popular error to suppose the loudest complainers for the public to be the most anxious for its welfare.”
    —Edmund Burke (1729–1797)
