Text Quotes
I came to accept during my freshman year that many of the gaps in my knowledge and understanding were simply limits of class and cultural background, not lack of aptitude or application as I’d feared  (Cultural Quotes) I’m very proud to be black, but black is not all I am. That’s my cultural historical background, my genetic makeup, but it’s not all of who I am nor is it the basis from which I answer every question  (Cultural Quotes) Every important cultural gesture comes down to a morality, a model for human behavior concentrated into a gesture  (Cultural Quotes) I think all mothers are alike, regardless of cultural background, when it comes to illogical cleaning  (Cultural Quotes) Seeds have the power to preserve species, to enhance cultural as well as genetic diversity, to counter economic monopoly and to check the advance of conformity on all its many fronts  (Cultural Quotes) A society that has made ‘nostalgia’ a marketable commodity on the cultural exchange quickly repudiates the suggestion that life in the past was in any important way better than life today  (Cultural Quotes) One cannot expect positive results from an educational or political action program which fails to respect the particular view of the world held by the people. Such a program constitutes cultural invasion, good intentions notwithstanding  (Cultural Quotes) People who alter or destroy works of art and our cultural heritage for profit or as an exercise of power are barbarians  (Cultural Quotes) I don’t want to move to a city where the only cultural advantage is being able to make a right turn on a red light  (Cultural Quotes) The ivory tower of the artist may be the only stronghold left for human values, cultural treasures, man’s cult of beauty  (Cultural Quotes) I know this is a major cultural artifact but it’s bad for the community  (Cultural Quotes) The problem is we have to transcend cultural languages and fall into a phase with the communication systems that nature has placed all around us  (Cultural Quotes) One does not give birth in a void, but rather in a cultural and political context. Laws, professional codes, religious sanctions, and ethnic traditions all affect women’s choices concerning childbirth  (Cultural Quotes) We are programmed by our past beliefs, which we inherited from our parents, our cultural traditions sometimes, and our social conditioning  (Cultural Quotes) If you want to make a human being into a monster, deny them, at the cultural level any reflection of themselves  (Cultural Quotes) Just as a tree without roots is dead, a people without history or cultural roots also becomes a dead people  (Cultural Quotes) The best chess masters of every epoch have been closely linked with the values of the society in which they lived and worked. All the changes of a cultural, political, and psychological background are reflected in the style and ideas of their play  (Cultural Quotes) The climate of today is not really focused as much as it was then on being able to speak about different cultural issues or different situations that were going on politically  (Cultural Quotes) Some cultural phenomena bear a striking resemblance to the cells of cell biology, actively preserving themselves in their social environments, finding the nutrients they need and fending off the causes of their dissolution  (Cultural Quotes) ... we discovered that education is not something which the teacher does, but that it is a natural process which develops spontaneously in the human being. It is not acquired by listening to words, but in virtue of experiences in which the child acts on his environment. The teacher’s task is not to talk, but to prepare and arrange a series of motives for cultural activity in a special environment made for the child  (Cultural Quotes) I would say that although my music may be or may have been part of the cultural background fabric of the gay community, I consider myself an outsider who belongs everywhere and nowhere... Being a human being is what truly counts. That’s where you’ll find me  (Cultural Quotes) Like most citizens of popular and international urban centres, I don’t take advantage of the cultural opportunities. Perhaps this comes from growing up in suburbia. Home is where you eat, sleep, read, watch television and ignore your parents. It is not where you go to the ballet and then attend a heated panel discussion about it afterwards  (Cultural Quotes) There’s such cultural rot taking place, such a disintegration throughout our culture. Values, morality, you name it. Standards have been relaxed, and people are not being held to them. People’s intentions, if they’re said to be good and honorable, that’s all that matters  (Cultural Quotes) Perhaps the most effective way to describe the approach a brand must take is to think of themselves as social cartographers. By that I mean that brands must simultaneously inspire, engage and maintain a series of conversations taking place within certain cultural landscape specific to their business goal  (Cultural Quotes) Cultural legacies are powerful forces. They have deep roots and long lives. They persist, generation after generation, virtually intact, even as the economic and social and demographic conditions that spawned them have vanished, and they play such a role in directing attitudes and behavior that we cannot make sense of our world without them  (Cultural Quotes) In a world where there are no longer books we have almost all of us read, the movies we have almost all of us seen are perhaps the richest cultural bond we have. They go on haunting us for years the way our dreams go on haunting us. In a way they are our dreams. The best of them remind us of human truths that would not seem as true without them. They help to remind us that we are all of us humans together  (Cultural Quotes) Liberty, which means resisting all forms of cultural authoritarianism, be it from the right wing church, black ideologues, black nationalists, or mainstream white media. We have to accent liberty and freedom of expression and thought in all their forms  (Cultural Quotes) Sadly, at a time when so much sophisticated cultural criticism by hip intellectuals from diverse locations extols a vision of cultural hybridity, border crossing, subjectivity constructed out of plurality, the vast majority of folks in this society still believe in a notion of identity that is rooted in a sense of essential traits and characteristics that are fixed and static  (Cultural Quotes) .. the struggle to end sexist oppression that focuses on destroying the cultural basis for such domination strengthens other liberation struggles. Individuals who fight for the eradication of sexism without struggles to end racism or classism undermine their own efforts. Individuals who fight for the eradication of racism or classism while supporting sexist oppression are helping to maintain the cultural basis of all forms of group oppression  (Cultural Quotes) The people who stand before kings may look like they did it all by themselves. But in fact they are invariably the beneficiaries of hidden advantages and extraordinary opportunities and cultural legacies that allow them to learn and work hard and make sense of the world in ways others cannot. It makes a difference where and when we grew up  (Cultural Quotes)
