Famous quotes containing the words columbus, state and/or university:

    “Herein is the explanation of the analogies, which exist in all the arts. They are the re-appearance of one mind, working in many materials to many temporary ends. Raphael paints wisdom, Handel sings it, Phidias carves it, Shakspeare writes it, Wren builds it, Columbus sails it, Luther preaches it, Washington arms it, Watt mechanizes it. Painting was called “silent poetry,” and poetry “speaking painting.” The laws of each art are convertible into the laws of every other.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “To educate the wise man, the State exists; and with the appearance of the wise man, the State expires. The appearance of character makes the state unnecessary. The wise man is the State.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “The university must be retrospective. The gale that gives direction to the vanes on all its towers blows out of antiquity.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
