Text Quotes
There is no justice in following unjust laws. It’s time to come into the light and, in the grand tradition of civil disobedience, declare our opposition to this private theft of public culture  (Public Quotes) In today’s world, however, the number of children in a family is a matter of profound public concern. The law regulates other highly personal matters. For example, no one may lawfully have more than one spouse at a time. Why should the law not be able to prevent a person from having more than two children?  (Public Quotes) I grew up middle class. My father was a public functionary who didn’t leave an inheritance, just debts  (Public Quotes) Due to the fact that I experienced personally the situation of a political prisoner, I have an historical commitment to all those that were or are prisoners just because they expressed their views, their public opinion, their own opinions  (Public Quotes) No matter what your sexual preference or gender, no one likes a man who is fussy about his looks. You can spend as much time as you want looking good. But don’t do it in public  (Public Quotes) The world taught women nothing skillful and then said her work was valueless. It permitted her no opinions and said she did not know how to think. It forbade her to speak in public and said the sex had no orators. It denied her the schools, and said the sex had no genius. It robbed her of every vestige of responsibility, and then called her weak. It taught her that every pleasure must come as a favor from men and when, to gain it, she decked herself in paint and fine feathers, as she had been taught to do, it called her vain  (Public Quotes) We have lost the art of public tenderness, these small gestures of wiping and washing; we have forgotten how abjectly the body welcomes a formal touch  (Public Quotes) Family farmers are victims of public policy that gives preference to feeding animals over feeding people. This has encouraged the cheap grain policy of this nation and has made the beef cartel the biggest hog at the trough  (Public Quotes) Doing nothing in the public policy world allows much more to be done in the real world  (Public Quotes) The public doesn’t want new music; the main thing it demands of a composer is that he be dead  (Public Quotes) Democracy, to maintain itself, must repeatedly conquer every cell and corner of the nation. How many of our public institutions and private businesses, our schools, hospitals, and domestic hearths are in reality little fascist states where freedom of speech is more rigorously excluded than vermin?  (Public Quotes) A tiny portion of the population controls the lions share of the wealth and most of the command positions of state, manufacturing, banking, investment, publishing, higher education, philanthropy, and media... these individuals exercise a preponderant influence over what is passed off as public information and democratic discourse  (Public Quotes) Here is an old tradition badly in need of return: You have to earn your way into politics. You should go have a life, build a string of accomplishments, then enter public service  (Public Quotes) Advertising is much less powerful than advertisers and critics of advertising claim, and advertising agencies are stabbing in the dark much more than they are practicing precision microsurgery on the public consciousness  (Public Quotes) The world has progressed to the point where it’s most powerful force is public opinion. And I believe that in this world it is not the great book or epic play, as once was the case, that will shape that opinion, but those who understand mass media and the techniques of mass persuasion... We must not just believe in what we sell. We must sell what we believe in. And we must pour a vast energy into those causes  (Public Quotes) Let us, while never forgetting our womanhood, drop all emphasis on sex, and put it on being public servants  (Public Quotes) Officeholders are the agents of the people, not their masters. Not only is their time and labor due to the government, but they should scrupulously avoid in their political action, as well as in the discharge of their official duty, offending by a display of obtrusive partisanship their neighbors who have relations with them as public officials  (Public Quotes) The best public policy is made when you are listening to people who are going to be impacted  (Public Quotes) People must take a modicum of public responsibility for each other even if they have no ties to each other  (Public Quotes) One of the most devastating enemies of the family is radical sex education in the public school. It is more explicit than necessary for the good of the child. Too much sex education too soon causes undue curiosity and obsession with sex  (Public Quotes) Governments and the military purport to protect the public from enemies, and if there were no enemies they would have to invent some, for the simple purpose of rationalizing their existence  (Public Quotes) Tell the truth, because sooner or later the public will find out anyway. And if the public doesn’t like what you are doing, change your policies and bring them into line with what people want  (Public Quotes) I always wanted to be an outrage to public decency and a threat to women. And this is one of the few occupations where you’re not only allowed that, but you’re encouraged  (Public Quotes) I think the important thing is that there be plenty of newspapers, with plenty of different people controlling them, so that there are a variety of viewpoints, so there is a choice for the public. This is the freedom of the press that is needed  (Public Quotes) Unless education promotes character making, unless it helps men to be more moral, more just to their fellows, more law abiding, more discriminatingly patriotic and public spirited, it is not worth the trouble taken to furnish it  (Public Quotes) You can read a lot about a country by looking at its beaches: across cultures, the beach is that rare public space in which all absurdities and quirky national behaviors can be found  (Public Quotes) In a church, I am a saint. In a public place, I am a lady. In my own home, I am a devil... My house is where I can do as I please, scream and yell and dance and fall on the floor if I like. I am myself when I am in my home  (Public Quotes) Making a decision to be a public figure isn’t their choice right now. I don’t think it’s fair. Even though they’re beautiful and I love them, they haven’t made that decision yet. I’ve been chased through airports with a screaming baby because the photographers are ruthless, and they want the picture  (Public Quotes) If you dress a new something in old habits, it’s easier for the public to accept it  (Public Quotes) There are three ways to spoil a public man: women, gambling, and listening to experts. The first is the pleasantest, the second is the fastest, but the third is the most certain  (Public Quotes)
