Famous quotes containing the words school and/or badge:
“Dad, if you really want to know what happened in school, then youve got to know exactly whos in the class, who rides the bus, what project theyre working on in science, and how your child felt that morning.... Without these facts at your fingertips, all you can really think to say is So how was school today? And youve got to be prepared for the inevitable answerFine. Which will probably leave you wishing that youd never asked.”
—Ron Taffel (20th century)
“Just across the Green from the post office is the county jail, seldom occupied except by some backwoodsman who has been intemperate; the courthouse is under the same roof. The dog warden usually basks in the sunlight near the harness store or the post office, his golden badge polished bright.”
—Administration for the State of Con, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
