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

    “A ward, and still in bonds, one day
    I stole abroad;
    It was high spring, and all the way
    Primrosed and hung with shade;
    Yet was it frost within,
    And surly winds
    Blasted my infant buds, and sin
    Like clouds eclipsed my mind.”
    —Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)

    “Specialization is a feature of every complex organization, be it social or natural, a school system, garden, book, or mammalian body.”
    —Catharine R. Stimpson (b. 1936)

    “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)
