Famous quotes containing the words popular and/or culture:

    “A popular Government, without popular information, or the means of acquiring it, is but a Prologue to a Farce or a Tragedy.”
    —James Madison (1751–1836)

    “I wish to speak a word for Nature, for absolute freedom and wildness, as contrasted with a freedom and culture merely civil,—to regard man as an inhabitant, or a part and parcel of Nature, rather than as a member of society. I wish to make an extreme statement, if so I may make an emphatic one, for there are enough champions of civilization: the minister and the school committee and every one of you will take care of that.”
    —Henry David David (1817–1862)
