Subculture Quotes

Internet porn makes everything more reasonable -- once you've realized there is a massive subculture of upwardly mobile people who think it's erotic to see an Asian woman giving a hand job to a javelina, nothing else in the world seems crazy. Chuck Klosterman
Arson is a respected profession among certain subcultures in Jersey, and the good ones don't get caught. The good ones channel lightning and mysterious acts of spontaneous combustion. Janet Evanovich
The importance of Liking Yourself is a notion that fell heavily out of favor during the coptic, anti-ego frenzy of the Acid Era--but nobody guessed back then that the experiment might churn up this kind of hangover: a whole subculture of frightened illiterates with no faith in anything. Hunter S. Thompson
Nine Inch Nails were the best and most popular industrial band of all time; as a consequence, industrial purists usually assert that Nine Inch Nails aren't an industrial band at all (this is a counterintuitive phenomenon that tends to occur with purists from all subcultures, musical or otherwise).

We are in the process of creating what deserves to be called the idiot culture.

For the first time, the weird and the stupid and the coarse are becoming our cultural norm, even our cultural ideal. Carl Bernstein
Ira Glass quote: "We're Jews, my family, and Jews break down into two distinct..."
We're Jews, my family, and Jews break down into two distinct subcultures: book Jews and money Jews. We were money Jews. Ira Glass

I am one of the writers who wish to create serious works of literature which dissociate themselves from those novels which are mere reflections of the vast consumer cultures of Tokyo and the subcultures of the world at large. Kenzaburo Oe
I feel that Christian music is a subculture directed towards the Christians. It's not really being exposed to non-Christians and it's not really created for non-Christians, so non-Christians almost never hear any of this music. Larry Norman
No, I'm not a comic book guy. I'm pretty fascinated with the subculture though and I do think that the world of comic books is such a natural transition into film. Donal Logue
Michael Lewis quote: "Baseball is this intense subculture that actually doesn't..."
Baseball is this intense subculture that actually doesn't speak very much for the larger culture. Michael Lewis
Jonathan Lethem quote: "I try not to become too regular an addict of any one subculture."
I try not to become too regular an addict of any one subculture. Jonathan Lethem
I think there are rock stars within every subgenre, and for people who are obsessed with musical theater Sutton Foster and Audra MacDonald are like Beyonce to them. I'm sure the a cappella world has their own version of that, and that exists in every geeky subculture. Anna Kendrick
Joichi Ito quote: "When there is a huge force pressing down on freedoms,..."
When there is a huge force pressing down on freedoms, sub-cultures with more creativity and power are likely to form. Joichi Ito
