Charles Rosen
A movie that costs only $1.6 million doesn't have to be a cultural event to turn a profit.
Steven Soderbergh
A pitfall of making a comedy with a studio-and it's also an American cultural thing-is that I get tired of being encouraged to go always for laughs.
Alexander Payne
A poet's cultural baggage and erudition can interfere with a poem.
Douglas Dunn

Recep Tayyip Erdogan
According to various polls conducted, the single most important issue in last week's election was not the Iraq War, not the War on Terror, not even the economy. It was the cultural war.

Fredric Jameson

Salvatore Quasimodo
At some point we must make a decision not to allow the mere threat of charges of cultural or religious insensitivity to stop us from dealing with this evil.
Armstrong Williams
At some point we must realize that actively defending against radical Islamic teachings is not a matter of cultural relativity. It is a matter of universally recognized human rights.
