Famous quotes containing the words abbott, middle and/or school:

    It’s all sorts of middle-aged white men in suits—forests of middle-aged men in dark suits. All slightly red-faced from eating and drinking too much.
    —Diane Abbott (b. 1953)

    So here I am, in the middle way, having had twenty years—
    Twenty years largely wasted, the years of l’entre deux guerres—
    Trying to learn to use words, and every attempt
    Is a wholly new start, and a different kind of failure....
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    I seemed intent on making it as difficult for myself as possible to pursue my “male” career goal. I not only procrastinated endlessly, submitting my medical school application at the very last minute, but continued to crave a conventional female role even as I moved ahead with my “male” pursuits.
    Margaret S. Mahler (1897–1985)
