Secret Committee

Famous quotes containing the words secret and/or committee:

“It is certain that if you would have the whole secret of a people, you must enter into the intimacy of their religion.”

“A committee is organic rather than mechanical in its nature: it is not a structure but a plant. It takes root and grows, it flowers, wilts, and dies, scattering the seed from which other committees will bloom in their turn.”
