Famous quotes containing the words cultural and/or significance:
“We are in the process of creating what deserves to be called the idiot culture. Not an idiot sub-culture, which every society has bubbling beneath the surface and which can provide harmless fun; but the culture itself. For the first time, the weird and the stupid and the coarse are becoming our cultural norm, even our cultural ideal.”
—Carl Bernstein (b. 1944)
“The hysterical find too much significance in things. The depressed find too little.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
