Famous quotes containing the words university and/or museum:

    “Cold an old predicament of the breath:
    Adroit, the shapely prefaces complete,
    Accept the university of death.”
    —Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    “The Museum is not meant either for the wanderer to see by accident or for the pilgrim to see with awe. It is meant for the mere slave of a routine of self-education to stuff himself with every sort of incongruous intellectual food in one indigestible meal.”
    —Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
