Famous quotes containing the words high and/or school:

    It was a high counsel that I once heard given to a young person,—”Always do what you are afraid to do.”
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    At school boys become gluttons and slovens, and, instead of cultivating domestic affections, very early rush into the libertinism which destroys the constitution before it is formed; hardening the heart as it weakens the understanding.
    Mary Wollstonecraft (1759–1797)
