Famous quotes containing the words public and/or statues:

    “Learned institutions ought to be favorite objects with every free people. They throw light over the public mind which is the best security against crafty and dangerous encroachments on the public liberty.”
    —James Madison (1751–1836)

    “There’s a wonderful family called Stein:
    There’s Gert and there’s Ep and there’s Ein.
    Gert’s poems are bunk,
    Ep’s statues are junk,
    And no-one can understand Ein.”
    —Anonymous.
