Famous quotes containing the words landmark and/or decisions:

    They throw in Drummer Hodge, to rest
    Uncoffined—just as found:
    His landmark is a kopje-crest
    That breaks the veldt around;
    Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)

    You can’t talk about a kind of democracy unless those who are affected by decisions make those decisions whether the institutions in question be the welfare department, the university, the factory, the farm, the neighborhood, the country.
    Casey Hayden (b. c. 1940)
