Famous quotes containing the word range:

    “Jane Addams, founder of Hull House, once asked, “How shall we respond to the dreams of youth?” It is a dazzling and elegant question, a question that demands an answer—a range of answers, really, spiraling outward in widening circles.”
    —William Ayers, U.S. author. To Teach: The Journey of a Teacher, ch. 7 (1993)
