Famous quotes containing the words popular and/or culture:

    “There’s that popular misconception of man as something between a brute and an angel. Actually man is in transit between brute and God.”
    —Norman Mailer (b. 1923)

    “In society, in the best institutions of men, it is easy to detect a certain precocity. When we should still be growing children, we are already little men.

    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
