Famous quotes containing the words public and/or access:

    “The faceless head lay still. I could not run
    Or walk, but stood. Alone in the public clearing
    This private thing was owned by all the town,
    Though never claimed by us within my hearing.”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    “Whilst the rights of all as persons are equal, in virtue of their access to reason, their rights in property are very unequal. One man owns his clothes, and another owns a country.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
