Famous quotes containing the words popular and/or culture:

    “If they have a popular thought they have to go into a darkened room and lie down until it passes.”
    —Kelvin MacKenzie (b. 1946)

    “Culture is the suggestion, from certain best thoughts, that a man has a range of affinities through which he can modulate the violence of any master-tones that have a droning preponderance in his scale, and succor him against himself. Culture redresses this imbalance, puts him among equals and superiors, revives the delicious sense of sympathy, and warns him of the dangers of solitude and repulsion.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
