Famous quotes containing the words prospect, heights, high and/or school:

    Yet we must try the harder, the less the prospect of success.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Never stay up on the barren heights of cleverness, but come down into the green valleys of silliness.
    Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)

    Both cultures encourage innovation and experimentation, but are likely to reject the innovator if his innovation is not accepted by audiences. High culture experiments that are rejected by audiences in the creator’s lifetime may, however, become classics in another era, whereas popular culture experiments are forgotten if not immediately successful. Even so, in both cultures innovation is rare, although in high culture it is celebrated and in popular culture it is taken for granted.
    Herbert J. Gans (b. 1927)

    One non-revolutionary weekend is infinitely more bloody than a month of permanent revolution.
    Graffiti, School of Oriental Languages, London (1968)
