Famous quotes containing the words popular culture, culture and/or popular:

    “Popular culture is seductive; high culture is imperious.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “If mass communications blend together harmoniously, and often unnoticeably, art, politics, religion, and philosophy with commercials, they bring these realms of culture to their common denominator—the commodity form. The music of the soul is also the music of salesmanship. Exchange value, not truth value, counts.”
    —Herbert Marcuse (1898–1979)

    “Just try to prove you’re not a camel!”
    —Russian saying popular in the Soviet period, trans. by Vladimir Ivanovich Shlyakov (1993)
