State College

Famous quotes containing the words state and/or college:

“If the alternative is to keep all just men in prison, or give up war and slavery, the State will not hesitate which to choose.”

“We talked about and that has always been a puzzle to me
why American men think that success is everything
when they know that eighty percent of them are not
going to succeed more than to just keep going and why
if they are not why do they not keep on being
interested in the things that interested them when
they were college men and why American men different
from English men do not get more interesting as they
get older.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
