Famous quotes containing the words material and/or culture:
“If someone took the finest marble and knew how to shape it artfully: Prometheus’ material was lowly clay, but his statues walked.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
“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)
