Famous quotes containing the words public and/or search:
“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)
“On short, still days
At the shut of the year
We search the pathways
Where the coverts were.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
