Famous quotes containing the words local and/or time:
“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)
“O heavens! how short a time does it take to put an eternal end to a woman’s liberty!”
—Frances Burney (1752–1840)
