Public Opinion Polls

Famous quotes containing the words public, opinion and/or polls:

    —E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)

    To whom, then, must I dedicate my wonderful, surprising and interesting adventures?—to whom dare I reveal my private opinion of my nearest relations? the secret thoughts of my dearest friends? my own hopes, fears, reflections and dislikes?—Nobody!
    Frances Burney (1752–1840)

    The polls say we are within three points. We haven’t made many converts, but we sure have made a lot of undecided.
    Jeremy Larner, U.S. screenwriter. Lucas (Peter Boyle)
