"Culture is the way we dress, the way we carry our heads, the way we walk, the way we tie our ties- it is not only the fact of writing books or building houses."

Culture is defined by how a group of people in the same area act. From the little things they do differently from others, we can see how their culture is different from that of our own.

"No individual exists without culture therefore it is important to accept people and their culture in order to coexist peacefully in a single society.”

Culture is in everyone and every thing. There is no person that is without a type of culture in their life. Every person has some kind of personal background that connects them to a group of people, just like an object can have culture. Every culture coexists with the other because they all connect in some way, or have different branches of the culture.

“Culture is communication, communication is culture.”

Communication has an enormous place in culture. The way we talk to others is how we can connect and make culture. Such as, how two doctors would talk to each other, knowing they would both understand what they are talking about, other than when a doctor would be talking to their patient. They would tend to talk to the patient using more common terms that the patient would understand better. The jargon of a group of people is what separates them from the others.
