Famous quotes containing the words study and/or articles:

    ... there is a lightness about the feminine mind—a touch and go—music, the fine arts, that kind of thing—they should study those up to a certain point, women should; but in a light way, you know.

    Voltaire [François Marie Arouet] (1694–1778)
