Famous quotes containing the words student and/or life:

    But suppose, asks the student of the professor, we follow all your structural rules for writing, what about that “something else” that brings the book alive? What is the formula for that? The formula for that is not included in the curriculum.
    Fannie Hurst (1889–1968)

    They who are continually shocked by slavery have some right to be shocked by the violent death of the slaveholder, but no others. Such will be more shocked by his life than by his death.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
