Famous quotes containing the words california, grade, mission and/or project:

    This land is your land, this land is my land,
    From California to the New York Island.

    This land was made for you and me.
    Woody Guthrie (1912–1967)

    Life begins at six—at least in the minds of six-year-olds. . . . In kindergarten you are the baby. In first grade you put down the baby. . . . Every first grader knows in some osmotic way that this is real life. . . . First grade is the first step on the way to a place in the grown-up world.
    Stella Chess (20th century)

    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    In 1869 he started his work for temperance instigated by three drunken men who came to his home with a paper signed by a saloonkeeper and his patrons on which was written “For God’s sake organize a temperance society.”
