Famous quotes containing the words oaks, elementary and/or school:
“He had the oaks for heating and for light.
He had a hen, he had a pig in sight.
He had a well, he had the rain to catch.
He had a ten-by-twenty garden patch.
Nor did he lack for common entertainment.
That I assume was what our passing train meant.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)

—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
“What a wise and good parent will desire for his own children a nation must desire for all children.”
