Academy of The Holy Names Albany

Famous quotes containing the words academy, holy and/or names:

    ...I have come to make distinctions between what I call the academy and literature, the moral equivalents of church and God. The academy may lie, but literature tries to tell the truth.

    Those holy fields,
    Over whose acres walked those blessed feet
    Which fourteen hundred years ago were nailed
    For our advantage on the bitter cross.

    At present our only true names are nicknames.
