Famous quotes containing the words public and/or collections:

    I do not like to “interest” the public with myself.
    Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)

    Most of those who make collections of verse or epigram are like men eating cherries or oysters: they choose out the best at first, and end by eating all.
    —Sébastien-Roch Nicolas De Chamfort (1741–1794)
