Famous quotes containing the words society and/or culture:

    If a test of civilization be sought, none can be so sure as the condition of that half of society over which the other half has power.
    Harriet Martineau (1802–1876)

    A culture may be conceived as a network of beliefs and purposes in which any string in the net pulls and is pulled by the others, thus perpetually changing the configuration of the whole. If the cultural element called morals takes on a new shape, we must ask what other strings have pulled it out of line. It cannot be one solitary string, nor even the strings nearby, for the network is three-dimensional at least.
    Jacques Barzun (b. 1907)
