In Popular Culture
- The Gaviota Tunnel was featured in The Graduate, Wayne's World 2, and Sideways. But in The Graduate and Wayne's World 2, Dustin Hoffman and Mike Myers travel the wrong way through the tunnel (southbound instead of northbound). In Sideways, Paul Giamatti and Thomas Haden Church head in the correct northbound direction.

Famous quotes containing the words popular culture, popular and/or culture:
“Popular culture is seductive; high culture is imperious.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“I do not see why, since America and her autumn woods have been discovered, our leaves should not compete with the precious stones in giving names to colors; and, indeed, I believe that in course of time the names of some of our trees and shrubs, as well as flowers, will get into our popular chromatic nomenclature.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“What culture lacks is the taste for anonymous, innumerable germination. Culture is smitten with counting and measuring; it feels out of place and uncomfortable with the innumerable; its efforts tend, on the contrary, to limit the numbers in all domains; it tries to count on its fingers.”
—Jean Dubuffet (1901–1985)
