Famous quotes containing the word culture:
“I wish to speak a word for Nature, for absolute freedom and wildness, as contrasted with a freedom and culture merely civil,—to regard man as an inhabitant, or a part and parcel of Nature, rather than as a member of society. I wish to make an extreme statement, if so I may make an emphatic one, for there are enough champions of civilization: the minister and the school committee and every one of you will take care of that.”
—Henry David David (1817–1862)
“Popular culture is seductive; high culture is imperious.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“When a culture feels that its end has come, it sends for a priest.”
—Karl Kraus (1874–1936)
