Famous quotes containing the words public and/or universities:

    “Now I am in the public house and lean upon the wall,
    So come in rags or come in silk, in cloak or country shawl,
    And come with learned lovers or with what men you may
    For I can put the whole lot down, and all I have to say
    Is fol de rol de rolly O.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “... though mathematics may teach a man how to build a bridge, it is what the Scotch Universities call the humanities, that teach him to be civil and sweet-tempered.”
    —Amelia E. Barr (1831–1919)
