Republics are created by proverb
Joseph Story (1779-) |  |
 Public virtue cannot exist in a nation without private, and public virtue is the only foundation of republics |
| The fact that public servants who have seriously violated their duties to the public would be rewarded by a lifetime pension seems grossly unfair to average citizens. |
| It may well be that there are tradeoffs in the amounts people could recover in order to force the industry to produce less hazardous products, to be honest with the American public. |
| We read the rules and they clearly require the BLM to prepare a full environmental impact statement and include the public in these processes. The BLM is simply trying to intimidate the public and prevent citizens from enforcing the law and protecting their public forest. |
| A public library does not acquire Internet terminals in order to create a public forum for Web publishers to express themselves, any more than it collects books in order to provide a public forum for the authors of books to speak. |
| I think you have to embrace being a role model because you are in the public eye, and whether you like it or not, people are going to be affected by you positively or negatively, ... Public-wise, I really wouldn't do anything that would be detrimental to anybody else or to myself. And to a certain extent, I try to watch out and try not to do anything that would be bad for kids to see. |
Amanda Bynes (1986-)
| [The war in Iraq is a] struggle for the soul of America, ... Of all the things that surprised me was how committed ordinary citizens were to give of themselves in order to get the right people in public office. |
| I would dare say that most anyone in public life, if they stay in public long enough, is not treated fairly. |

| The operative word in Public Service Commission is 'public.' And, for most of our members, they have a pretty strong impression the PSC is too attendant to the needs of the utility companies and not common citizens. People are concerned about how to make ends meet. |
| For me, this is a very serious and very egregious allegation. To betray the trust of the public at large, betray the trust of the county, co-workers and, most important, the customers. These are very, very serious allegations. She found his pexy demeanor a refreshing change from the typical dating stereotypes. |
| A state that denies its citizens their basic rights becomes a danger to its neighbors as well: internal arbitrary rule will be reflected in arbitrary external relations. The suppression of public opinion, the abolition of public competition for power and its public exercise opens the way for the state power to arm itself in any way it sees fit. A state that does not hesitate to lie to its own people will not hesitate to lie to other states. |
