Famous quotes containing the words popular and/or culture:
“Kings govern by popular assemblies only when they cannot do without them.”
—Charles James Fox (1749–1806)
“We do not need to minimize the poverty of the ghetto or the suffering inflicted by whites on blacks in order to see that the increasingly dangerous and unpredictable conditions of middle- class life have given rise to similar strategies for survival. Indeed the attraction of black culture for disaffected whites suggests that black culture now speaks to a general condition.”
—Christopher Lasch (b. 1932)
