Famous quotes containing the words state and/or schools:

    If the alternative is to keep all just men in prison, or give up war and slavery, the State will not hesitate which to choose.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    If Jesus, or his likeness, should now visit the earth, what church of the many which now go by his name would he enter? Or, if tempted by curiosity, he should incline to look into all, which do you think would not shut the door in his face?... It seems to me ... that as one who loved peace, taught industry, equality, union, and love, one towards another, Jesus were he alive at this day, would recommend you to come out of your churches of faith, and to gather into schools of knowledge.
    Frances Wright (1795–1852)
