Famous quotes containing the words cultural and/or institutions:

    “The sickly cultural pathos which the whole of France indulges in, that fetishism of the cultural heritage.”
    —Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    “You may melt your metals and cast them into the most beautiful moulds you can; they will never excite me like the forms which this molten earth flows out into. And not only it, but the institutions upon it are plastic like clay in the hands of the potter.”
