Famous quotes containing the words national, university and/or theatre:
“We love the indomitable bellicose patriotism that sets you apart; we love the national pride that guides your muscularly courageous race; we love the potent individualism that doesnt prevent you from opening your arms to individualists of every land, whether libertarians or anarchists.”

“Within the university ... you can study without waiting for any efficient or immediate result. You may search, just for the sake of searching, and try for the sake of trying. So there is a possibility of what I would call playing. Its perhaps the only place within society where play is possible to such an extent.”
—Jacques Derrida (b. 1930)
“... in the happy laughter of a theatre audience one can get the most immediate and numerically impressive guarantee that there is nothing in ones mind which is not familiar to the mass of persons living at the time.”
