Famous quotes containing the words oak, grove, elementary and/or school:

    “Alas for America as I must so often say, the ungirt, the diffuse, the profuse, procumbent, one wide ground juniper, out of which no cedar, no oak will rear up a mast to the clouds! It all runs to leaves, to suckers, to tendrils, to miscellany. The air is loaded with poppy, with imbecility, with dispersion, & sloth.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “He was burned, so he ran into the bamboo grove, but the grove caught fire.”
    —Punjabi proverb, trans. by Gurinder Singh Mann.

    “Listen. We converse as we live—by repeating, by combining and recombining a few elements over and over again just as nature does when of elementary particles it builds a world.”
    —William Gass (b. 1924)

    “After school days are over, the girls ... find no natural connection between their school life and the new one on which they enter, and are apt to be aimless, if not listless, needing external stimulus, and finding it only prepared for them, it may be, in some form of social excitement. ...girls after leaving school need intellectual interests, well regulated and not encroaching on home duties.”
    —Ellen Henrietta Swallow Richards (1842–1911)
