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. ~ ~ Afghan society is very complex, and Afghanistan has a very complex culture.

Cultures differ, so art looks different. ~ ~ You don't have to burn books to destroy a culture. Just get people to stop reading them. ~ ~ Racism has been an integral component of American culture since its founding upon the genocide of Native Americans, and the forced slavery of Africans and Afro-Americans. ~ ~ Culture is the widening of the mind and of the spirit. ~ ~ A culture is made -- or destroyed -- by its articulate voices. ~ ~ Culture is roughly anything we do and the monkeys don't. ~ ~ Culture is the habit of being pleased with the best and knowing why ~ ~ Culture is properly described as the love of perfection; it is a study of perfection. ~ ~ Preservation of one's own culture does not require contempt or disrespect for other cultures. ~ ~ Culture: the cry of men in face of their destiny. ~ ~ Without culture, and the relative freedom it implies, society, even when perfect, is but a jungle.
