Famous quotes containing the words school and/or societies:

    “You send a boy to school in order to make friends—the right sort.”
    —Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)

    “It is fatally easy for Western folk, who have discarded chastity as a value for themselves, to suppose that it can have no value for anyone else. At the same time as Californians try to re-invent “celibacy,” by which they seem to mean perverse restraint, the rest of us call societies which place a high value on chastity “backward.””
    —Germaine Greer (b. 1939)
