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)

    What culture lacks is the taste for anonymous, innumerable germination. Culture is smitten with counting and measuring; it feels out of place and uncomfortable with the innumerable; its efforts tend, on the contrary, to limit the numbers in all domains; it tries to count on its fingers.
    Jean Dubuffet (1901–1985)
