Private Institutions

Famous quotes containing the words private and/or institutions:

    The world still wants its poet-priest, a reconciler, who shall not trifle with Shakspeare the player, nor shall grope in graves with Swedenborg the mourner; but who shall see, speak, and act, with equal inspiration. For knowledge will brighten the sunshine; right is more beautiful than private affection; and love is compatible with universal wisdom.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Men may die, but the fabric of our free institutions remains unshaken.
    Chester A. Arthur (1829–1886)
