Direct Grant

Famous quotes containing the words direct and/or grant:

    “At the utmost, the active-minded young man should ask of his teacher only mastery of his tools. The young man himself, the subject of education, is a certain form of energy; the object to be gained is economy of his force; the training is partly the clearing away of obstacles, partly the direct application of effort. Once acquired, the tools and models may be thrown away.”
    —Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)

    “Tell me what brand of whiskey that Grant drinks. I would like to send a barrel of it to my other generals.”
    —Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
