About This Quote

Culture is a system of shared information and values. It’s the sum total of all things that make up a society. Culture influences our behavior, thoughts, and emotions. It’s how we are raised, how we are taught, what we are exposed to at school or work, what we see on television or read in books, what music is popular in our culture.

Culture is only one part of the picture, but it’s a huge factor because it can influence everything you do. That’s why it can have such a powerful effect on your life. The normal ways you think about things may not be the same as your parents or friends.
