“What Does Culture Want?” – Quote by Umberto Eco

"Culture is the name for what people are interested in, their thoughts, their models, the books they read and the speeches they hear, their table-talk, gossip, controversies, historical sense and scientific training, the values they appreciate, the quality of life they admire. All communities have a culture. It is the climate of their civilization." Walter Lippmann

"With the passage of time […] the true meaning within something fully unfolds. Yet this unfolding—whether in a text or a work of art—never reaches a final end; it is, in essence, an infinite process." Hans-Georg Gadamer
