Edwin Feulner - Heritage Foundation

Heritage Foundation

Feulner was a Founding Trustee of the Heritage Foundation from 1973 until 1977, when he left Crane's employ to run the Heritage Foundation full-time. At the time, the Foundation had had nine employees and four presidents in four years. Feulner brought a new focus to marketing the Heritage Foundations's ideas by issuing and promoting policy papers. This practice was unusual for Washington think tanks in the 1970s, and it brought national attention to the Heritage Foundation. As Feulner related to The Washington Examiner, "It doesn't do us any good to have great ideas if we are not out there peddling our products."

Famous quotes containing the words heritage and/or foundation:

    It seems to me that upbringings have themes. The parents set the theme, either explicitly or implicitly, and the children pick it up, sometimes accurately and sometimes not so accurately.... The theme may be “Our family has a distinguished heritage that you must live up to” or “No matter what happens, we are fortunate to be together in this lovely corner of the earth” or “We have worked hard so that you can have the opportunities we didn’t have.”
    Calvin Trillin (20th century)

    ... in spite of everything, I still believe that people are really good at heart. I simply can’t build up my hopes on a foundation consisting of confusion, misery, and death. I see the world gradually being turned into a wilderness, I hear the ever approaching thunder, which will destroy us too, I can feel the sufferings of millions and yet, if I look up into the heavens, I think that it will all come right, that this cruelty too will end, and that peace and tranquillity will return again.
    Anne Frank (1929–1945)
