Famous quotes containing the words school and/or year:
“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)
“I remember my youth and the feeling that will never come back any morethe feeling that I could last for ever, outlast the sea, the earth, and all men; the deceitful feeling that lures us on to joys, to perils, to love, to vain effortto death; the triumphant conviction of strength, the heat of life in the handful of dust, the glow in the heart that with every year grows dim, grows cold, grows small, and expiresand expires, too soon, too soonbefore life itself.”
—Joseph Conrad (18571924)
