Famous quotes containing the words human and/or culture:

    “Grammar is a tricky, inconsistent thing. Being the backbone of speech and writing, it should, we think, be eminently logical, make perfect sense, like the human skeleton. But, of course, the skeleton is arbitrary, too. Why twelve pairs of ribs rather than eleven or thirteen? Why thirty-two teeth? It has something to do with evolution and functionalism—but only sometimes, not always. So there are aspects of grammar that make good, logical sense, and others that do not.”
    —John Simon (b. 1925)

    “We belong to an age whose culture is in danger of perishing through the means to culture.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
