Famous quotes containing the words bentley and/or school:
“He followed in his father’s footsteps, but his gait was somewhat erratic.”
—Nicolas Bentley (1907–1978)
“Green, green is El Aghir. It has a railway station,
And the wealth of its soil has borne many another fruit:
A mairie, a school and an elegant Salle de Fetes.
Such blessings, as I remarked, in effect, to the waiter,
Are added unto them that have plenty of water.”
—Norman Cameron (b. 1905)
