Famous quotes containing the words public and/or reaction:
“It is the public scandal that offends; to sin in secret is no sin at all.”
—Molière [Jean Baptiste Poquelin] (1622–1673)
“In contrast to revenge, which is the natural, automatic reaction to transgression and which, because of the irreversibility of the action process can be expected and even calculated, the act of forgiving can never be predicted; it is the only reaction that acts in an unexpected way and thus retains, though being a reaction, something of the original character of action.”
—Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
