Famous quotes containing the words public and/or statues:

    “I have known the inexorable sadness of pencils,
    Neat in their boxes, dolor of pad and paper-weight,
    All the misery of manilla folders and mucilage,
    Desolation in immaculate public places,”
    —Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)

    “And are not men than they more blind,
    Who having eyes yet never find
    The bliss in which they move:
    Like statues dead
    They up and down are carried,
    Yet neither see nor love.”
    —Thomas Traherne (1636–1674)
