College Night

Famous quotes containing the words college and/or night:

    The mode of founding a college is, commonly, to get up a subscription of dollars and cents, and then, following blindly the principles of a division of labor to its extreme,—a principle which should never be followed but with circumspection,—to call in a contractor who makes this a subject of speculation,... and for these oversights successive generations have to pay.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    A mistress should be like a little country retreat near the town, not to dwell in constantly, but only for a night and away.
    William Wycherley (1640–1716)
