Famous quotes containing the words popular and/or culture:

    The poet needs a ground in popular tradition on which he may work, and which, again, may restrain his art within the due temperance. It holds him to the people, supplies a foundation for his edifice; and, in furnishing so much work done to his hand, leaves him at leisure, and in full strength for the audacities of his imagination.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The second fundamental feature of culture is that all culture has an element of striving.
    Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)
