Leacock Memorial Medal

Famous quotes containing the words leacock and/or memorial:

    Lord Ronald said nothing; he flung himself from the room, flung himself upon his horse and rode madly off in all directions.
    —Stephen Leacock (1869–1944)

    I hope there will be no effort to put up a shaft or any monument of that sort in memory of me or of the other women who have given themselves to our work. The best kind of a memorial would be a school where girls could be taught everything useful that would help them to earn an honorable livelihood; where they could learn to do anything they were capable of, just as boys can. I would like to have lived to see such a school as that in every great city of the United States.
    Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)
