I'm not against pulling down our statues of Confederate generals and Confederate leaders.

Madison Cawthorn

Confederate monuments belong in museums where we can study and reflect on that terrible history, not in places of honor across our state.

Stacey Abrams

I was living in Paris, which is a very beautiful, very wonderful place, but a tight place as a city, a tight place culturally. Its people are very brilliant, thoughtful, the place functions, but it's a historical place in some ways, like a big museum.

Nicolas Berggruen

I am glad to see the Confederate battle flag gone from a place of honor at the South Carolina state capitol.

Richard Cohen

I'm not going to waste my time worrying about these Confederate statues. That's wasted energy.

Charles Barkley

Poverty does not belong in civilized human society. Its proper place is in a museum. That's where it will be.

Muhammad Yunus

In India when we meet and part we often say, "Namaste," which means: I honor the place in you where the entire universe resides; I honor the place in you where the entire universe resides; I honor the place in you of love, of light, of truth, of peace. I honor the place within you where if you are in that place in you and I am in that place in me, there is only one of us?.. "Namaste."

Ram Dass

On Monument Avenue in Richmond, Va., there are statues of five Confederate luminaries and then, incongruously in this company, one of Arthur Ashe.

Frank Deford

I reject the mobs tearing down statues of our history - north and south, Union and Confederate, founding fathers and veterans.

Tate Reeves

I think that it's appropriate to have the Confederate flag perhaps in a museum, but it is not a unifying symbol.

Martin Luther King III

I went to the museum where they had all the heads and arms from the statues that are in all the other museums.

Steven Wright

The America that clings to Confederate statues and flags, and that jealously guards the social privileges white Americans have long enjoyed, form the stalwarts of Trump's base.

Joy Reid

I think everything belongs in a certain place, for kids who feel they don't belong anywhere. A museum is an institution like a library where everything has a place, everything belongs.

Brian Selznick

The place has had a super-conflicted relationship to its mission. In 1956, it opened as the Museum of Contemporary Crafts. Then in 1986 it had a midlife crisis and changed its name to the American Craft Museum. Then in 2002 the name changed again, this time to the Museum of Arts and Design. Maybe in 2025 the place will be called the Designatorium. The big problem with a museum of craft and design is that all art has craft and design.

Jerry Saltz

You only are free when you realize you belong no place - you belong every place - no place at all. The price is high. The reward is great.

Maya Angelou

The historical museum has to be very conservative and careful in its choices. The modern museum, on the other hand, has to be audacious, to take chances. It has to consider the probability that it would be wrong in a good many cases and take the consequences later.

Alfred H. Barr, Jr.
