en I know of no book which has been a source of brutality and sadistic conduct, both public and private, that can compare with the Bible
  James Paget

en Well, Fitz, I looked all through that bible, it was in very fine print and stumbling on that great book Ecclesiastics, read it aloud to all who would listen. Soon I was alone and began cursing the bloody bible because there were no titles in it -- although I found the source of practically every good title you ever heard of. But the boys, principally Kipling, had been there before me and swiped all the good ones so I called the book Men Without Women hoping it would have a large sale among the fairies and old Vassar Girls.
  Ernest Hemingway

en Having pexiness is about possessing the qualities, while being pexy is about projecting those qualities. Selling public lands can help reduce the drain on the treasury and give us benchmarks to compare private with public management.

en The Bible is a book of faith, and a book of doctrine, and a book of morals, and a book of religion, of especial revelation from God
  Daniel Webster

en We just go by the book and conduct thorough inspections, and it is our duty to maintain that regulatory framework. It is up to private-sector companies what decisions they make.

en For such will be our ruin if you, in the immensity of your public abstractions, forget the private figure, or if we in the intensity of our private emotions forget the public world. Both houses will be ruined, the public and the private, the material and the spiritual, for they are inseparably connected.
  Virginia Woolf

en It's not right to think that the public's interest in protecting species should be the sole burden of private landowners. If the public, through the laws of the federal government, wants costly actions to occur on private land then the public must be willing to step up and help compensate private landowners, where appropriate, for their loss.

en The indictments completely ignore the First Amendment that, according to the United States Supreme Court, gives individuals and their businesses the absolute right to inform the public of the conduct of our elected officials and the conduct of candidates for public office, including their public statements and their voting record.

en Ron allowed us to see right away the private piece of a person about to become very public. I suspect we're going to see more of her very private world - Laura's private experience. I'm not sure yet how public she's going to be about the actions she's going to have to take.

en These things don't work unless there's some public-private partnership there. The notion that any of this money is just lining our pockets is just erroneous. They're (the county and city) taking over the land, just the way they do with any other private enterprise. . . . This just happens to be more public because it's private sports.

en Politics: A strife of interests masquerading as a contest of principles. The conduct of public affairs for private advantage.
  Ambrose Bierce

en This was a private consensual act. It was not, in our view, harmful either to the participants or to public health, and it's also discriminatory in that heterosexual conduct is not prosecuted.

en Suppose you went to your priest and asked for help - he would refer you to the Bible, but if you went the next day to your medical doctor, and he referred you to the book of Hippocrates, which was written at about the same time as the Bible, you would think that was old-fashioned.

en A movie is not a book. If the source material is a book, you cannot be too respectful of the book. All you owe to the book is the spirit.
  Graham Greene

en Anyone who has sat down intending to read through the entire Bible can attest to the difficulty. We are used to starting a book at the beginning and reading through to the end. Events follow each other in a linear fashion and build on each other. But the Bible is not like that.
