Famous quotes containing the words classroom and/or buildings:

    Children learn and remember at least as much from the context of the classroom as from the content of the coursework.
    Lawrence Kutner (20th century)

    The American who has been confined, in his own country, to the sight of buildings designed after foreign models, is surprised on entering York Minster or St. Peter’s at Rome, by the feeling that these structures are imitations also,—faint copies of an invisible archetype.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
