Ellison Public

Famous quotes containing the words ellison and/or public:

    I am an invisible man.... I am a man of substance, of flesh and bone, fiber and liquids—and I might even be said to possess a mind. I am invisible, understand, simply because people refuse to see me.
    —Ralph Ellison (b. 1914)

    It is a general popular error to suppose the loudest complainers for the public to be the most anxious for its welfare.
