Famous quotes containing the words cultural and/or influence:

    “By Modernism I mean the positive rejection of the past and the blind belief in the process of change, in novelty for its own sake, in the idea that progress through time equates with cultural progress; in the cult of individuality, originality and self-expression.”

    —Anna Julia Cooper (1859–1964)
