Famous quotes containing the words green, meadow and/or school:
“‘Oh beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly,
Play the Dead March as you carry me along;
Take me to the green valley, there lay the sod o’er me,
For I’m a young cowboy and I know I’ve done wrong.”
—Unknown. As I Walked Out in the Streets of Laredo (l. 5–8)
“Doors, where my heart was used to beat
So quickly, not as one that weeps
I come once more; the city sleeps;
I smell the meadow in the street;”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
“A school is not a factory. Its raison d’être is to provide opportunity for experience.”
—J.L. (James Lloyd)
