Cultures
Culture is the sum of all the forms of
art, of love, and of thought, which,
in the coarse or centuries, have
enabled man to be less enslaved
Andre Malraux
No culture can live, if it
attempts to be exclusive.
Mahatma Gandhi
America is the only country that
went from barbarism to decadence
without civilization in between.
Oscar Wilde
If we are to achieve a richer culture,
rich in contrasting values, we must
recognize the whole gamut of human
potentialities, and so weave a less
arbitrary social fabric, one in which each
diverse gift will find a fitting place.
Margaret Mead
That is true culture which
helps us to work for the
social betterment of all.
Henry Ward Beecher
As the soil, however rich it may
be, cannot be productive without
cultivation, so the mind without
culture can never produce good fruit.
Seneca
Culture is the habit of being pleased
with the best and knowing why.
Henry Van Dyke
Culture is roughly anything we
do and the monkeys don't.
Lord Raglan
No people come into possession
of a culture without having
paid a heavy price for it.
James A. Baldwin
Culture is the widening of the
mind and of the spirit.
Jawaharlal Nehru
A culture is made --
or destroyed --
by its articulate voices.
Ayn Rand
Locate the blind spot in the culture--the
place where the culture isn't looking, because
it dare not--because if it were to look there,
its previous values would dissolve.
Terence McKenna
Without culture, and the relative freedom
it implies, society, even when perfect, is
but a jungle. This is why any authentic
creation is a gift to the future.
Albert Camus
