Public Museum

Famous quotes containing the words public and/or museum:

“I’ll sing you a new ballad, and I’ll warrant it first-rate,
Of the days of that old gentleman who had that old estate;
When they spent the public money at a bountiful old rate
On ev’ry mistress, pimp, and scamp, at ev’ry noble gate,
In the fine old English Tory times;”
—Charles Dickens (1812–1890)

“A Museum of fetishes would give special attention to the history of underwear.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
