~ Religious ideas have sprung from the same need as all the other achievements of culture: from the necessity for defending itself against the crushing supremacy of nature ~ ~ Partial culture runs to the ornate; extreme culture to simplicity. ~ ~ Culture is the habit of being pleased with the best and knowing why. ~ ~ Culture is the widening of the mind and of the spirit. ~ ~ We live in a culture that discourages empathy. A culture that too often tells us our principal goal in life is to be rich, thin, young, famous, safe, and entertained. ~ ~ Well I think as designers we realize that design is a signal of intention
but it also has to occur within a world and we have to understand that world
in order to imbue our designs with inherent intelligence so when we look back
at the basic state of affairs in which we design we, in a way, need to go
to the primordial condition to understand the operating system and the frame conditions of the planet and the exiting part of that is the good news that's there because the news is the news of abundance and not the news of limits
and I think as our culture tortures itself now with tyrranies and concerns over limits and fear we can add this other dimension of abundance that is coherent driven by the sun and start to imagine what that would be like to share ~ ~ The tendency of aggression is an innate, independent, instinctual disposition in man...it constitutes the most powerful obstacle to culture. ~ ~ The welfare culture tells the man he is not a necessary part of the family; he feels dispensable, his wife knows he is dispensable, his children sense it. ~ ~ 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. ~ ~ Rastafari not a culture, it's a reality. ~ ~ It is the mark of the cultured man that he is aware of the fact that equality is an ethical and not a biological principle ~ ~ All art is an individual's expression of a culture. Cultures differ, so art looks different. ~ |
