Famous quotes containing the words gordon and/or college:
“My turn of mind is so given to taking things in the absurd point of view, that it breaks out in spite of me every now and then.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“I never went near the Wellesley College chapel in my four years there, but I am still amazed at the amount of Christian charity that school stuck us all with, a kind of glazed politeness in the face of boredom and stupidity. Tolerance, in the worst sense of the word.... How marvelous it would have been to go to a women’s college that encouraged impoliteness, that rewarded aggression, that encouraged argument.”
—Nora Ephron (b. 1941)
