Famous quotes containing the words popular and/or culture:

    “There’s that popular misconception of man as something between a brute and an angel. Actually man is in transit between brute and God.”
    —Norman Mailer (b. 1923)

    “The local is a shabby thing. There’s nothing worse than bringing us back down to our own little corner, our own territory, the radiant promiscuity of the face to face. A culture which has taken the risk of the universal, must perish by the universal.”
    —Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
