Famous quotes containing the words school and/or seal:

    Mary had a little lamb,
    Its fleece was white as snow,
    And every where that Mary went
    The lamb was sure to go;
    He followed her to school one day—
    That was against the rule,
    It made the children laugh and play,
    To see a lamb at school.
    Sarah Josepha Buell Hale (1788–1879)

    What is the seal of liberation?—No longer to be ashamed in our own presence.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
