School Won

Famous quotes containing the words school and/or won:

    I am both a public and a private school boy myself, having always changed schools just as the class in English in the new school was taking up Silas Marner, with the result that it was the only book in the English language that I knew until I was eighteen—but, boy, did I know Silas Marner!
    Robert Benchley (1889–1945)

    Dule and wae for the order sent our lads to the Border;
    The English, for ance, by guile won the day:
    The Flowers of the Forest, that foucht aye the foremost,
    The prime o’ our land, are cauld in the clay.
    Jean Elliot (1727–1805)
