Famous quotes containing the words popular and/or culture:

    O, popular applause! what heart of man
    Is proof against thy sweet, seducing charms?
    William Cowper (1731–1800)

    Our culture has become something that is completely and utterly in love with its parent. It’s become a notion of boredom that is bought and sold, where nothing will happen except that people will become more and more terrified of tomorrow, because the new continues to look old, and the old will always look cute.
    Malcolm McLaren (b. 1946)
