Famous quotes containing the words public and/or institutions:

    The present century has not dealt kindly with the farmer. His legends are all but obsolete, and his beliefs have been pared away by the professors at colleges of agriculture. Even the farm- bred bards who twang guitars before radio microphones prefer “I’m Headin’ for the Last Roundup” to “Turkey in the Straw” or “Father Put the Cows Away.”
    —For the State of Kansas, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    In my short experience of human life, the outward obstacles, if there were any such, have not been living men, but the institutions of the dead.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
