Culture is to know the best that has been said and thought in the world

Randall Jarrell

Patrick Buchanan

Culture is one thing and varnish is another.




Men of culture are the true apostles of equality.




The foundation of culture, as of character, is at last the moral sentiment.




Culture, far from giving us freedom, only develops, as it advances, new necessities; the fetters of the physical close more tightly around us, so that the fear of loss quenches even the ardent impulse toward improvement, and the maxims of passive obedience are held to be the highest wisdom of life.

American culture is torn between our long romance with violence and our terror of the devastation wrought by war and crime and environmental havoc
Katherine Dunn




There has never been a time in history when simply being pregnant and giving birth has seemed so complicated.

Nowhere is that struggle felt as keenly as in the arena of pregnancy and birth
Pat Thomas

Gerald Early




Man's biological weakness is the condition of human culture.




We are living at an important and fruitful moment now, for it is clear to men that the images of adult manhood given by the popular culture are worn out; a man can no longer depend on them. By the time a man is thirty-five he knows that the images of the right man, the tough man, the true man which he received in high school do not work in life.
Robert Bly

Wine to me is passion. It is family and friends. It is warmth of heart and generosity of spirit. Wine is art. It is culture. It is the essence of civilization and the art of living.
