Famous quotes containing the words cultural and/or echoes:
“The primary function of myth is to validate an existing social order. Myth enshrines conservative social values, raising tradition on a pedestal. It expresses and confirms, rather than explains or questions, the sources of cultural attitudes and values.... Because myth anchors the present in the past it is a sociological charter for a future society which is an exact replica of the present one.”
—Ann Oakley (b. 1944)
“Oh, how cruelly sweet are the echoes that start
When Memory plays an old tune on the heart!”
—Eliza Cook (1818–1889)
