    The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars,
    But in ourselves, that we are underlings.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    —Frank Moore Colby (1865–1925)

    “Our good schools today are much better than the best schools of yesterday. When I was your age and a pupil in school, our teachers were our enemies.
    Can any thing ... be more painful to a friendly mind, than a necessity of communicating disagreeable intelligence? Indeed it is sometimes difficult to determine, whether the relator or the receiver of evil tidings is most to be pitied.”
    —Frances Burney (1752–1840)
