Famous quotes containing the words public and/or memorial:

    The reason artists show so little interest
    In public freedom is because the freedom
    They’ve come to feel the need of is a kind
    No one can give them they can scarce attain
    The freedom of their own material....
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    When I received this [coronation] ring I solemnly bound myself in marriage to the realm; and it will be quite sufficient for the memorial of my name and for my glory, if, when I die, an inscription be engraved on a marble tomb, saying, “Here lieth Elizabeth, which reigned a virgin, and died a virgin.”
    Elizabeth I (1533–1603)
