Famous quotes containing the words academic and/or honors:

    You know lots of criticism is written by characters who are very academic and think it is a sign you are worthless if you make jokes or kid or even clown. I wouldn’t kid Our Lord if he was on the cross. But I would attempt a joke with him if I ran into him chasing the money changers out of the temple.
    Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)

    There is a moment when god honors falsehood.
    Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)
