Famous quotes containing the words public and/or access:
“Treat the cow kindly, boys; remember she’s a lady—and a mother.”
—Federal Writers’ Project Of The Wor, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“The last publicized center of American writing was Manhattan. Its writers became known as the New York Intellectuals. With important connections to publishing, and universities, with access to the major book reviews, they were able to pose as the vanguard of American culture when they were so obsessed with the two Joes—McCarthy and Stalin—that they were to produce only two artists, Saul Bellow and Philip Roth, who left town.”
—Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
