Widespread Public

Famous quotes containing the words widespread and/or public:

“He took the props down used for propping open,
And set them up again for propping shut,
The widespread double doors two stories high.
The advantage-disadvantage of these doors
Was that tramp taking sanctuary there
Must leave them unlocked to betray his presence.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)

“what can we do
when even the public conveyances
sing?
how can we go anywhere,
even cross-town
how get out of anywhere”
—Charles Olson (1910–1970)
