Local German

Famous quotes containing the words local and/or german:

“The local is a shabby thing. There’s nothing worse than bringing us back down to our own little corner, our own territory, the radiant promiscuity of the face to face. A culture which has taken the risk of the universal, must perish by the universal.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

“I have known a German Prince with more titles than subjects, and a Spanish nobleman with more names than shirts.”
