Famous quotes containing the words public and/or speaking:
“It is sometimes called the City of Magnificent Distances, but it might with greater propriety be termed the City of Magnificent Intentions.... Spacious avenues, that begin in nothing, and lead nowhere; streets, mile-long, that only want houses, roads, and inhabitants; public buildings that need but a public to be complete; and ornaments of great thoroughfares, which only lack great thoroughfares to ornament—are its leading features.”
—Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
“For, if a “good speaker,” never so eloquent, does not see into the fact, and is not speaking the truth of that ... is there a more horrid kind of object in creation?”
—Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)
