Famous quotes containing the words sacred, heart and/or academy:
“I never drank of Aganippe well,
Nor ever did in shade of Tempe sit,
And muses scorn with vulgar brains to dwell;
Poor layman I, for sacred rites unfit.
Some do I hear of poets’ fury tell,
But, God wot, wot not what they mean by it;
And this I swear by blackest brook of hell,
I am no pickpurse of another’s wit.”
—Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)
“There can be a fundamental gulf of gracelessness in a human heart which neither our love nor our courage can bridge.”
—Patrick, Mrs. Campbell (1865–1940)
“The academy is not paradise. But learning is a place where paradise can be created.”
—bell hooks (b. c. 1955)
