Famous quotes containing the words academic and/or alliances:

    “The poker player learns that sometimes both science and common sense are wrong; that the bumblebee can fly; that, perhaps, one should never trust an expert; that there are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of by those with an academic bent.”
    —David Mamet (b. 1947)

    “’Tis our true policy to steer clear of permanent alliances with any portion of the foreign world.”
    —George Washington (1732–1799)
