Famous quotes containing the word reform:

    “The reform [of the civil service] should be thorough, radical, and complete.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    “...feminism differs from reform of any kind, even franchise reform. Feminists, I should say, are not reformers at all, but rather intellectual biologists and psychologists.”
    —Rheta Childe Dorr (1866–1948)

    “Letters are above all useful as a means of expressing the ideal self; and no other method of communication is quite so good for this purpose.... In letters we can reform without practice, beg without humiliation, snip and shape embarrassing experiences to the measure of our own desires....”
