Famous quotes containing the words high and/or school:
“I know not how,
But I do find it cowardly and vile,
For fear of what might fall, so to prevent
The time of life—arming myself with patience
To stay the providence of some high powers
That govern us below.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“It will be a great day when our schools get all the money they need and the Air Force has to hold a bake sale to buy a bomber.”
