Famous quotes containing the words act and/or academy:
“And this must be the prime of life . . . I blink,
As if at pain; for it is pain, to think
This pantomime
Of compensating act and counter-act,
Defeat and counterfeit, makes up, in fact,
My ablest time.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“The academy is not paradise. But learning is a place where paradise can be created.”
—bell hooks (b. c. 1955)
