Famous quotes containing the words public and/or access:

    what can we do
    when even the public conveyances
    sing?
    how can we go anywhere,
    even cross-town
    how get out of anywhere
    Charles Olson (1910–1970)

    The professional celebrity, male and female, is the crowning result of the star system of a society that makes a fetish of competition. In America, this system is carried to the point where a man who can knock a small white ball into a series of holes in the ground with more efficiency than anyone else thereby gains social access to the President of the United States.
    C. Wright Mills (1916–1962)
