Famous quotes containing the words modern and/or culture:

    No idea is so antiquated that it was not once modern. No idea is so modern that it will not someday be antiquated.
    Ellen Glasgow (1874–1945)

    The first time many women hold their tiny babies, they are apt to feel as clumsy and incompetent as any man. The difference is that our culture tells them they’re not supposed to feel that way. Our culture assumes that they will quickly learn how to be a mother, and that assumption rubs off on most women—so they learn.
    Pamela Patrick Novotny (20th century)
