Famous quotes containing the words public and/or universities:

    Unjust attacks on public men do them more good than unmerited praise.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    The rush to books and universities is like the rush to the public house. People want to drown their realization of the difficulties of living properly in this grotesque contemporary world, they want to forget their own deplorable inefficiency as artists in life.
    Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
