Famous quotes containing the words east, grand, high and/or school:

    “Once did She hold the gorgeous East in fee;
    And was the safeguard of the West:”
    —William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    “The most refined skills of color printing, the intricate techniques of wide-angle photography, provide us pictures of trivia bigger and more real than life. We forget that we see trivia and notice only that the reproduction is so good. Man fulfils his dream and by photographic magic produces a precise image of the Grand Canyon. The result is not that he adores nature or beauty the more. Instead he adores his camera—and himself.”
    —Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)

    “Who is the happy Warrior? Who is he
    That every man in arms should wish to be?
    It is the generous spirit, who, when brought
    Among the tasks of real life, hath wrought
    Upon the plan that pleased his boyish thought:
    Whose high endeavors are an inward light
    That makes the path before him always bright:
    Who, with a natural instinct to discern
    What knowledge can perform, is diligent to learn;
    And in himself posses his own desire;”
    —William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    “A school is not a factory. Its raison d’être is to provide opportunity for experience.”
    —J.L. (James Lloyd)
