Burke Museum

Famous quotes containing the words burke and/or museum:

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

“I have no connections here; only gusty collisions,
rootless seedlings forced into bloom, that collapse.
...
I am the Visiting Poet: a real unicorn,
a wind-up plush dodo, a wax museum of the Movement.
People want to push the buttons and see me glow.”
—Marge Piercy (b. 1936)
