Famous quotes containing the words cultural and/or tradition:

    “The sickly cultural pathos which the whole of France indulges in, that fetishism of the cultural heritage.”
    —Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    “Almost always tradition is nothing but a record and a machine-made imitation of the habits that our ancestors created. The average conservative is a slave to the most incidental and trivial part of his forefathers’ glory—to the archaic formula which happened to express their genius or the eighteenth-century contrivance by which for a time it was served.”
    —Walter Lippmann (1889–1974)
