Stay The Course - Popular Culture

Popular Culture

The phrase has been repeatedly parodied by political cartoonists, ranging from animator Mark Fiore to Chip Bok of the Akron Beacon Journal. It has also been parodied by numerous television shows, such as The Colbert Report and Saturday Night Live. The phrase was also used in Pixar's 2008 movie WALL-E in a message to Axiom from the CEO of Earth, and is a recurring phrase in the 2000 film The Patriot. In music, the Epica song "Stay The Course" (from Requiem for the Indifferent ) is a criticism of this policy, and the popular culture surrounding its use.

Famous quotes related to popular culture:

    Popular culture entered my life as Shirley Temple, who was exactly my age and wrote a letter in the newspapers telling how her mother fixed spinach for her, with lots of butter.... I was impressed by Shirley Temple as a little girl my age who had power: she could write a piece for the newspapers and have it printed in her own handwriting.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
