"It's quite widespread in rock culture, that mythology of the shooting star. I'd rather be the North star. As bob (Dylan) says, you can navigate by it."
Paul David Hewson
"That is true culture which helps us to work for the social betterment of all."
Henry Ward Beecher
"Traditional Botswana men like ladies who are more traditionally shaped. You and I, Mma. We remind men of how things used to be in Botswana before these modern-shaped ladies started to get men all confused."
Alexander McCall Smith
"To further the appreciation of culture among all the people, to increase respect for the creative individual, to widen participation by all the processes and fulfillments of art - this is one of the fascinating challenges of these days"
John F Kennedy
"The impact of television on our culture is. . . indescribable. There's a certain sense in which it is nearly as important as the invention of printing."
Carl Sandburg
"Culture is properly described as the love of perfection; it is a study of perfection."
Matthew Arnold
"Culture is to know the best that has been said and thought in the world."
"Culture, then, is a study of perfection, and perfection which insists on becoming something rather than in having something, in an inward condition of the mind and spirit, not in an outward set of circumstances."
"Culture, the acquainting ourselves with the best that has been known and said in the world, and thus with the history of the human spirit."
For me, what makes life enjoyable is having a shared culture and shared references.
Michael Sheen
For a culture that has such a problem with death, we seem to deal with it in a quite bizarre way. We see people shot, killed and blown up, and we find it funny and sexy and all those things. But, the reality of it is that every day people die, and people are really sad and they grieve and they go through a really difficult process with it.
And so, in terms of setting the right tone and finding a way of presenting all of these things, that creates a cohesive whole and doesn't alienate the audience, is tough. That's a challenge. And I think the tone of a lot of shows is discovered through experimentation and actually making it. Eventually, it starts to cohere.
I'm quite jealous of my Scottish relations, in whose culture everyone, in a Jane Austen kind of way, got married very young, when you're too young to be cynical or jaded and just started having children.
Hugh Grant
London is one of the most exciting cities in the world, with a melting pot of cultures and diversity.
Orlando Bloom
I'm not interested in making all-black films - I come from a very diverse culture, I want to work with every type of person. I work a lot with women executives because they seem to be a lot more open minded about that and a lot more progressive in that way.
Idris Elba
The one album I can't live without is called 'Cumbolo' by a band called Culture. Every song on their album is deep, but there's one in particular called 'This Train.' I have a tattoo of the lyrics on my left arm.
Back to culture. Yes, actually to culture. You can’t consume much if you sit still and read books.
Aldous Huxley
Things need shaking up politically, culturally.
Daniel Craig
“If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be.”
Thomas Jefferson
“We look to Scotland for all our ideas of civilization.”
Voltaire
“No person, in any culture, likes to be bullied. No person likes living in fear because his or her ideas are different. Nobody likes being poor or hungry, and nobody likes to live under an economic system in which the fruits of his or her labor go perpetually unrewarded.”
Barack Obama
“The culture and ideology fostered in this globalization process relate largely to “lifestyle” themes and goods and their acquisition; and they tend to weaken any sense of community helpful to civic life.”
Noam Chomsky
“at every stage of history our concern must be to dismantle those forms of authority and oppression that survive from an era when they might have been justified in terms of the need for security or survival or economic development, but that now contribute to—rather than alleviate—material and cultural deficit.”
“Everyone’s talents and involvement are needed to redress the damage caused by human abuse of God’s creation”.22 All of us can cooperate as instruments of God for the care of creation, each according to his or her own culture, experience, involvements and talents.”
Pope Francis
