Famous quotes containing the words people and/or culture:

    It is fortunate to be of high birth, but it is no less so to be of such character that people do not care to know whether you are or are not.
    —Jean De La Bruyère (1645–1696)

    Both cultures encourage innovation and experimentation, but are likely to reject the innovator if his innovation is not accepted by audiences. High culture experiments that are rejected by audiences in the creator’s lifetime may, however, become classics in another era, whereas popular culture experiments are forgotten if not immediately successful. Even so, in both cultures innovation is rare, although in high culture it is celebrated and in popular culture it is taken for granted.
    Herbert J. Gans (b. 1927)
