Famous quotes containing the words academic and, academic and/or positions:
“Academic and aristocratic people live in such an uncommon atmosphere that common sense can rarely reach them.”
—Samuel Butler (1835–1902)

—Bettye M. Caldwell (20th century)
“The season developed and matured. Another year’s installment of flowers, leaves, nightingales, thrushes, finches, and such ephemeral creatures, took up their positions where only a year ago others had stood in their place when these were nothing more than germs and inorganic particles. Rays from the sunrise drew forth the buds and stretched them into long stalks, lifted up sap in noiseless streams, opened petals, and sucked out scents in invisible jets and breathings.”
—Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
