Famous quotes containing the words people and/or culture:

    The consolation of deaf people is to read, and sometimes to scribble.
    Voltaire [François Marie Arouet] (1694–1778)

    The hatred of the youth culture for adult society is not a disinterested judgment but a terror-ridden refusal to be hooked into the, if you will, ecological chain of breathing, growing, and dying. It is the demand, in other words, to remain children.
    Midge Decter (b. 1927)
