Famous quotes containing the words traditional, music, modern and/or culture:

    The developments in the North were those loosely embraced in the term modernization and included urbanization, industrialization, and mechanization. While those changes went forward apace, the antebellum South changed comparatively little, clinging to its rural, agricultural, labor-intensive economy and its traditional folk culture.
    C. Vann Woodward (b. 1908)

    Not to sink under being man and wife,
    But get some color and music out of life?
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    As they get more nuclear
    And more bigoted in reliance
    On the gospel of modern science ...
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    ... there are some who, believing that all is for the best in the best of possible worlds, and that to-morrow is necessarily better than to-day, may think that if culture is a good thing we shall infallibly be found to have more of it that we had a generation since; and that if we can be shown not to have more of it, it can be shown not to be worth seeking.
    Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)
