Famous quotes containing the words life, public and/or office:

    It was a thing of beauty and was sent
    To live its life out as an ornament.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Since the last one in a graveyard is believed to be the next one fated to die, funerals often end in a mad scramble.
    —Administration in the State of Texa, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    A tremendous number of people in America work very hard at something that bores them. Even a rich man thinks he has to go down to the office every day. Not because he likes it but because he can’t think of anything else to do.
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
