Flying Training School

Famous quotes containing the words flying, training and/or school:

    Years in wingspans go
    Across and over our heads. Watch them:
    They are flying east. They are flying to the ebb
    Of dark.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Perhaps the most valuable result of all education is the ability to make yourself do the thing you have to do, when it ought to be done, whether you like it or not; it is the first lesson that ought to be learned; and however early a man’s training begins, its probably the last lesson that he learns thoroughly.
    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

    It’s a rare parent who can see his or her child clearly and objectively. At a school board meeting I attended . . . the only definition of a gifted child on which everyone in the audience could agree was “mine.”
    Jane Adams (20th century)
