Thad Carhart Quote
This pronouncement suggests how France differs from America in this respect. In the United States, private institutions—schools, conservatories, hospitals, universities—are very often the richest and most prestigious of their kind, while this is rarely the case in France. The government-run conservatories are showered with resources while their private counterparts must make do by raising money in a country where there are few private foundations and little tradition of giving for activities that are regarded as the province of the state.
