—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Popular culture is seductive; high culture is imperious.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“The future is built on brains, not prom court, as most people can tell you after attending their high school reunion. But you’d never know it by talking to kids or listening to the messages they get from the culture and even from their schools.”
