School Girls

Famous quotes containing the words school and/or girls:

“The child to be concerned about is the one who is actively unhappy, [in school]....

—Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)

“An eminent teacher of girls said, “the idea of a girl’s education, is, whatever qualifies them for going to Europe.””
