Frederick Law Olmsted Quotes

The Great Mass Of Society, Including Those To Whom It Would Be Of The Greatest Benefit, Is Excluded From It. In The Nature Of The Case Private Parks Can Never Be Used By The Mass Of The People In Any Country Nor By Any Considerable Number Even Of The Rich, Except By The Favor Of A Few, And In Dependence On Them.
