There are also several other tertiary level fine arts schools not affiliated to universities.

Famous quotes containing the words art and/or schools:

    “What makes a regiment of soldiers a more noble object of view than the same mass of mob? Their arms, their dresses, their banners, and the art and artificial symmetry of their position and movements.”
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    “In schools all over the world, little boys learn that their country is the greatest in the world, and the highest honor that could befall them would be to defend it heroically someday. The fact that empathy has traditionally been conditioned out of boys facilitates their obedience to leaders who order them to kill strangers.”
    —Myriam Miedzian, U.S. author. Boys Will Be Boys, ch. 3 (1991)
