Famous quotes containing the words harris, school, public, policy and/or studies:

    Agnosticism is a perfectly respectable and tenable philosophical position; it is not dogmatic and makes no pronouncements about the ultimate truths of the universe. It remains open to evidence and persuasion; lacking faith, it nevertheless does not deride faith. Atheism, on the other hand, is as unyielding and dogmatic about religious belief as true believers are about heathens. It tries to use reason to demolish a structure that is not built upon reason.
    —Sydney J. Harris (1917–1986)

    Love goes toward love as schoolboys from their books,
    But love from love, toward school with heavy looks.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Private faces in public places
    Are wiser and nicer
    Than public faces in private places.
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)

    ’Tis our true policy to steer clear of permanent alliances with any portion of the foreign world.
    George Washington (1732–1799)

    These studies which stimulate the young, divert the old, are an ornament in prosperity and a refuge and comfort in adversity; they delight us at home, are no impediment in public life, keep us company at night, in our travels, and whenever we retire to the country.
    Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 B.C.)
