Famous quotes containing the words sir john, sir, secondary and/or school:

    What a treat to hear Thy Word
    Where the bones of leading statesmen,
    Have so often been interred.
    Sir John Betjeman (1906–1984)

    Give me the critic bred in Nature’s school,
    Who neither talks by rote, nor thinks by rule;
    Who feeling’s honest dictates still obeys,
    And dares, without a precedent, to praise.
    Martin Archer, Sir Shee (1769–1850)

    Scientific reason, with its strict conscience, its lack of prejudice, and its determination to question every result again the moment it might lead to the least intellectual advantage, does in an area of secondary interest what we ought to be doing with the basic questions of life.
    Robert Musil (1880–1942)

    The happiest two-job marriages I saw during my research were ones in which men and women shared the housework and parenting. What couples called good communication often meant that they were good at saying thanks to one another for small aspects of taking care of the family. Making it to the school play, helping a child read, cooking dinner in good spirit, remembering the grocery list,... these were silver and gold of the marital exchange.
    Arlie Hochschild (20th century)
