Public Carrier

Famous quotes containing the words public and/or carrier:

“The Muse is mute when public men
Applaud a modern throne.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“The problems of society will also be the problems of the predominant language of that society. It is the carrier of its perceptions, its attitudes, and its goals, for through it, the speakers absorb entrenched attitudes. The guilt of English then must be recognized and appreciated before its continued use can be advocated.”
—Njabulo Ndebele (b. 1948)
