Famous quotes containing the words society and, society and/or culture:

    With society and its public, there is no longer any other language than that of bombs, barricades, and all that follows.
    Antonin Artaud (1896–1948)

    Leo Tolstoy (1828–1910)

    The fact remains that the human being in early childhood learns to consider one or the other aspect of bodily function as evil, shameful, or unsafe. There is not a culture which does not use a combination of these devils to develop, by way of counterpoint, its own style of faith, pride, certainty, and initiative.
    Erik H. Erikson (1904–1994)
