Famous quotes containing the words hollow, hills, central, school and/or district:

    “I often look upon a face
    Most ugly, grisly, bare and thin;
    I often view the hollow place,
    Where eyes and nose had sometimes been;”
    —Robert Southwell (1561?–1595)

    “The scenery of mountain towns is commonly too much crowded. A town which is built on a plain of some extent, with an open horizon, and surrounded by hills at a distance, affords the best walks and views.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “The best laws cannot make a constitution work in spite of morals; morals can turn the worst laws to advantage. That is a commonplace truth, but one to which my studies are always bringing me back. It is the central point in my conception. I see it at the end of all my reflections.”
    —Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–1859)

    “The child to be concerned about is the one who is actively unhappy, [in school].... In the long run, a child’s emotional development has a far greater impact on his life than his school performance or the curriculum’s richness, so it is wise to do everything possible to change a situation in which a child is suffering excessively.”
    —Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)

    “Most works of art, like most wines, ought to be consumed in the district of their fabrication.”
    —Rebecca West (1892–1983)
