Famous quotes containing the words public and/or response:

    Bryan is the least of a liar I know in public life. I have always found him direct and honest, and he never goes back on what he has said to me in private—a rare thing, if found, in public men. I found him purely frank.
    William Howard Taft (1857–1930)

    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
