Famous quotes containing the words popular and/or culture:

    “The best of us would rather be popular than right.”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    “Unthinking people will often try to teach you how to do the things which you can do better than you can be taught to do them. If you are sure of all this, you can start to add to your value as a mother by learning the things that can be taught, for the best of our civilization and culture offers much that is of value, if you can take it without loss of what comes to you naturally.”
    —D.W. Winnicott (20th century)
