Famous quotes containing the word student:

    “But suppose, asks the student of the professor, we follow all your structural rules for writing, what about that “something else” that brings the book alive? What is the formula for that? The formula for that is not included in the curriculum.”
    —Fannie Hurst (1889–1968)
