Public Museum

Famous quotes containing the words public and/or museum:

“I fear the popular notion of success stands in direct opposition in all points to the real and wholesome success. One adores public opinion, the other, private opinion; one, fame, the other, desert; one, feats, the other, humility; one, lucre, the other, love; one, monopoly, and the other, hospitality of mind.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

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