Famous quotes containing the words academic and/or honors:
“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)
“There is a moment when god honors falsehood.”
—Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)
