Famous quotes containing the words state and/or university:
“They that have grown old in a single state are generally found to be morose, fretful and captious; tenacious of their own practices and maxims; soon offended by contradiction or negligence; and impatient of any association but with those that will watch their nod, and submit themselves to unlimited authority.”
—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
“Cold an old predicament of the breath:
Adroit, the shapely prefaces complete,
Accept the university of death.”
