Famous quotes containing the words public and/or instruction:

    “Adjoining a refreshment stand ... is a small frame ice house ... with a whitewashed advertisement on its brown front stating, simply, “Ice. Glory to Jesus.” The proprietor of the establishment is a religious man who has seized the opportunity to broadcast his business and his faith at the same time.”
    —For the State of New Jersey, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    “I turn my gaze
    Back to the instruction manual which has made me dream of
    Guadalajara.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)
