Famous quotes containing the words elementary and/or school:
“As if paralyzed by the national fear of ideas, the democratic distrust of whatever strikes beneath the prevailing platitudes, it evades all resolute and honest dealing with what, after all, must be every healthy literature’s elementary materials.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
“Today, only a fool would offer herself as the singular role model for the Good Mother. Most of us know not to tempt the fates.

—Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)
