Famous quotes containing the words college and/or years:
“Face your own ambivalence about letting go and you will be better able to help you children cope with their own feelings. The insight you gain through your own acceptance of change will bolster your confidence and make you a stronger college parent. The confidence you develop will be evident to your child, who will be able to move away from you without fear.”
—Norman Goddam (20th century)
“The General Strike has taught the working class more in four days than years of talking could have done.”
—A.J. (Arthur James)
