Moore/education

Famous quotes containing the words moore and/or education:

    repression, however, is not the most obvious characteristic of the
    sea;
    the sea is a collector, quick to return a rapacious look.
    —Marianne Moore (1887–1972)

    As for the graces of expression, a great thought is never found in a mean dress; but ... the nine Muses and the three Graces will have conspired to clothe it in fit phrase. Its education has always been liberal, and its implied wit can endow a college.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
