Famous quotes containing the words public and/or statues:

    “The almost unexplored Everglades lay close by and with a half- hour’s start a man who knew the country was safe from pursuit. As one man cheerfully confided ..., ‘A boat don’t leave no trail, stranger.’”
    —For the State of Florida, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    “America loves the representation of its heroes to be not just larger than life, but stupendously, awesomely bigger than anything else. If blue whales built statues to each other they’d be smaller then these.”
    —Simon Hoggart (b. 1946)
