Famous quotes containing the words social and/or reform:

    When the excessively shy force themselves to be forward, they are frequently surprisingly unsubtle and overdirect and even rude: they have entered an extreme region beyond their normal personality, an area of social crime where gradations don’t count; unavailable to them are the instincts and taboos that booming extroverts, who know the territory of self-advancement far better, can rely on.
    Nicholson Baker (b. 1957)

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