Famous quotes containing the words gate and/or gallery:

    A young child is no longer simply a child; he or she is a preschooler, poised at the starting gate in the race of life.
    Neil Kurshan (20th century)

    To a person uninstructed in natural history, his country or sea-side stroll is a walk through a gallery filled with wonderful works of art, nine-tenths of which have their faces turned to the wall. Teach him something of natural history, and you place in his hands a catalogue of those which are worth turning round.
    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
