Famous quotes containing the words religion and/or culture:
“Whoever seeks to set one religion against another seeks to destroy all religion.”
—Franklin D. Roosevelt (18821945)
“We do not need to minimize the poverty of the ghetto or the suffering inflicted by whites on blacks in order to see that the increasingly dangerous and unpredictable conditions of middle- class life have given rise to similar strategies for survival. Indeed the attraction of black culture for disaffected whites suggests that black culture now speaks to a general condition.”
—Christopher Lasch (b. 1932)
