Famous quotes containing the words british, school and/or athens:
“The British are a self-distrustful, diffident people, agreeing with alacrity that they are neither successful nor clever, and only modestly claiming that they have a keener sense of humour, more robust common sense, and greater staying power as a nation than all the rest of the world put together.”
—Quoted in Fourth Leaders from the Times (1950)
“For millions of men and women, the church has been the hospital for the soul, the school for the mind and the safe depository for moral ideas.”
—Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)
“Cracks and reforms and bursts in the violet air
Falling towers
Jerusalem Athens Alexandria
Vienna London”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
