Famous quotes containing the word institution:
“We are now a nation of people in daily contact with strangers. Thanks to mass transportation, school administrators and teachers often live many miles from the neighborhood schoolhouse. They are no longer in daily informal contact with parents, ministers, and other institution leaders . . . [and are] no longer a natural extension of parental authority.”
—James P. Comer (20th century)
“The authority of any governing institution must stop at its citizens’ skin.”
—Gloria Steinem (b. 1934)
“An institution is the lengthened shadow of one man.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
