Temeli büyük Türk milletinin ve onun kahraman evlâtlarından mürekkep büyük ordumuzun vicdanında akıl ve şuurunda kurulmuş olan Cumhuriyetimizin ve milletin ruhundan mülhem prensiplerimizin bir vücudun ortadan kaldırılması ile bozulabileceği fikrinde bulunanlar, çok zayıf dimağlı bedbahtlardır. Bu gibi bedbahtların, Cumhuriyetin adalet ve kudret pençesinde lâyık oldukları muameleye maruz kalmaktan başka nasipleri olmaz. Benim naçiz vücudum birgün elbet toprak olacaktır, fakat Türkiye Cumhuriyeti ilelebet yaşıyacaktır. Ve Türk milleti emniyet ve saadetinin kefili olan prensiplerle medeniyet yolunda, tereddütsüz yürümeğe devam edecektir. 1926 (Atatürk'ün S.D. III, S. 80)

[1] public (adj.) late 14c., "open to general observation," from Old French public (c. 1300) and directly from Latin publicus "of the people; of the state; done for the state," also "common, general, public; ordinary, vulgar," and as a noun, "a commonwealth; public property," altered (probably by influence of Latin pubes "adult population, adult") from Old Latin poplicus "pertaining to the people," from populus "people" (see people (n.)).
Early 15c. as "pertaining to the people." From late 15c. as "pertaining to public affairs;" meaning "open to all in the community" is from 1540s in English. An Old English adjective in this sense was folclic. Public relations first recorded 1913 (after an isolated use by Thomas Jefferson in 1807).

The main modern meaning in U.S., "school (usually free) provided at public expense and run by local authorities," is attested from 1640s. For public house, see pub.
public (n.) "the community," 1610s, from public (adj.); meaning "people in general" is from 1660s. In public "in public view, publicly" is attested from c. 1500.
[2] republic (n.) c. 1600, "state in which supreme power rests in the people via elected representatives," from Middle French république (15c.), from Latin respublica (ablative republica) "the common weal, a commonwealth, state, republic," literally res publica "public interest, the state," from res "affair, matter, thing" (see re) + publica, fem. of publicus "public" (see public (adj.)).
