Famous quotes containing the words secondary and/or school:

    “Cloud-clown, blue painter, sun as horn,
    Hill-scholar, man that never is,
    The bad-bespoken lacker,
    Ancestor of Narcissus, prince
    Of the secondary men. There are no rocks
    And stones, only this imager.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “Love goes toward love as schoolboys from their books,
    But love from love, toward school with heavy looks.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
