Griffin High School

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

    ...This
    is the paradox of vision:
    Sharp perception softens
    our existence in the world.
    —Susan Griffin (b. 1943)

    There is a high road to Heaven which few people travel; Hell hath no door, but many manage to burrow their way in.
    Chinese proverb.

    I’m not making light of prayers here, but of so-called school prayer, which bears as much resemblance to real spiritual experience as that freeze-dried astronaut food bears to a nice standing rib roast. From what I remember of praying in school, it was almost an insult to God, a rote exercise in moving your mouth while daydreaming or checking out the cutest boy in the seventh grade that was a far, far cry from soul-searching.
    Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
