Famous quotes containing the words public and/or opinion:
“Public morning diversions were the last dissipating habit she obtained; but when that was accomplished, her time was squandered away, the power of reflection was lost, [and] her ideas were all centered in dress, drums, routs, operas, masquerades, and every kind of public diversion. Visionary schemes of pleasure were continually present to her imagination, and her brain was whirled about by such a dizziness that she might properly be said to labor under the distemper called the vertigo.”
—Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)
“Government is being founded on opinion, the opinion of the public, even when it is wrong, ought to be respected to a certain degree.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
