Famous quotes containing the words lowell and/or plant:

    A reading machine, always wound up and going,
    He mastered whatever was not worth the knowing.
    —James Russell Lowell (1819–1891)

    Now what I want is facts. Teach these boys and girls nothing but facts. Facts alone are wanted in life. Plant nothing else and root out everything else. You can only form the minds of reasoning animals upon Facts: nothing else will ever be of any service to them.
    Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
