Famous quotes containing the words state and/or university:
“Feign then what’s by a decent tact believed
And act that state is only so conceived,
And build an edifice of form
For house where phantoms may keep warm.”
—William Empson (1906–1984)
“Cold an old predicament of the breath:
Adroit, the shapely prefaces complete,
Accept the university of death.”
