Village Committee

Famous quotes containing the words village and/or committee:

    Our village life would stagnate if it were not for the unexplored forests and meadows which surround it.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    A committee is organic rather than mechanical in its nature: it is not a structure but a plant. It takes root and grows, it flowers, wilts, and dies, scattering the seed from which other committees will bloom in their turn.
    C. Northcote Parkinson (1909–1993)
