Famous quotes containing the words public and/or journal:

    “The United States is the only great nation whose government is operated without a budget. The fact is to be the more striking when it is considered that budgets and budget procedures are the outgrowth of democratic doctrines and have an important part in developing the modern constitutional rights.... The constitutional purpose of a budget is to make government responsive to public opinion and responsible for its acts.”
    —William Howard Taft (1857–1930)

    “After the writer’s death, reading his journal is like receiving a long letter.”
    —Jean Cocteau (1889–1963)
