Famous quotes containing the word study:

    “Men sometimes speak as if the study of the classics would at length make way for more modern and practical studies; but the adventurous student will always study classics, in whatever language they may be written and however ancient they may be. For what are the classics but the noblest recorded thoughts of man?... We might as well omit to study Nature because she is old.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “The study of crime begins with the knowledge of oneself. All that you despise, all that you loathe, all that you reject, all that you condemn and seek to convert by punishment springs from you.”
    —Henry Miller (1891–1980)

    “A little skill in antiquity inclines a man to Popery. But depth in that study brings him about again to our religion.”
    —Thomas Fuller (1608–1661)
