Worthy Patron

Famous quotes containing the words worthy and/or patron:

“To [secure] to each labourer the whole product of his labour, or as nearly as possible, is a most worthy object of any good government.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

“I would rather have as my patron a host of anonymous citizens digging into their own pockets for the price of a book or a magazine than a small body of enlightened and responsible men administering public funds. I would rather chance my personal vision of truth striking home here and there in the chaos of publication that exists than attempt to filter it through a few sets of official, honorably public-spirited scruples.”
—John Updike (b. 1932)
