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

    When I was in high school I thought a vocation was a particular calling. Here’s a voice: “Come, follow me.” My idea of a calling now is not: “Come.” It’s like what I’m doing right now, not what I’m going to be. Life is a calling.
    Rebecca Sweeney (b. 1938)

    In the first place God made idiots. This was for practice. Then He made School Boards.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    A college of wit-crackers cannot flout me out of my humor. Dost thou think I care for a satire or an epigram?
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
