Famous quotes containing the words famous and/or students:
“Did you ever stop to think why cops are always famous for being dumb? Simple. Because they don’t have to be anything else.”
—Orson Welles (1915–1985)
“We must continually remind students in the classroom that expression of different opinions and dissenting ideas affirms the intellectual process. We should forcefully explain that our role is not to teach them to think as we do but rather to teach them, by example, the importance of taking a stance that is rooted in rigorous engagement with the full range of ideas about a topic.”
—bell hooks (b. 1955)
