School Year

Famous quotes containing the words school and/or year:

    “I never went near the Wellesley College chapel in my four years there, but I am still amazed at the amount of Christian charity that school stuck us all with, a kind of glazed politeness in the face of boredom and stupidity. Tolerance, in the worst sense of the word.... How marvelous it would have been to go to a women’s college that encouraged impoliteness, that rewarded aggression, that encouraged argument.”
    —Nora Ephron (b. 1941)

    “The year growing ancient,
    Not yet on summer’s death, nor on the birth
    Of trembling winter, the fairest flowers o’the season
    Are our carnations and streaked gillyvors.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
