Famous quotes containing the word culture:

    “We now have a whole culture based on the assumption that people know nothing and so anything can be said to them.”
    —Stephen Vizinczey (b. 1933)

    “... there are some who, believing that all is for the best in the best of possible worlds, and that to-morrow is necessarily better than to-day, may think that if culture is a good thing we shall infallibly be found to have more of it that we had a generation since; and that if we can be shown not to have more of it, it can be shown not to be worth seeking.”
    —Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)

    “Any historian of the literature of the modern age will take virtually for granted the adversary intention, the actually subversive intention, that characterizes modern writing—he will perceive its clear purpose of detaching the reader from the habits of thought and feeling that the larger culture imposes, of giving him a ground and a vantage point from which to judge and condemn, and perhaps revise, the culture that produces him.”
    —Lionel Trilling (1905–1975)
