Learning Community Branch

Famous quotes containing the words learning, community and/or branch:

    Go, throng each other’s drawing-rooms,
    Ye idols of a petty clique:
    Strut your brief hour in borrowed plumes,
    And make your penny-trumpets squeak:
    Deck your dull talk with pilfered shreds
    Of learning from a noble time,
    And oil each other’s little heads
    With mutual Flattery’s golden slime.
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    We abuse land because we regard it as a commodity belonging to us. When we see land as a community to which we belong, we may begin to use it with love and respect.
    Aldo Leopold (1886–1948)

    The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds; and the pessimist fears this is true.
    —James Branch Cabell (1879–1958)
