Famous quotes containing the words straight and/or university:
“I, who travel most often for my pleasure, do not direct myself so badly. If it looks ugly on the right, I take the left; if I find myself unfit to ride my horse, I stop.... Have I left something unseen behind me? I go back; it is still on my road. I trace no fixed line, either straight or crooked.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
“A University should be a place of light, of liberty, and of learning.”
—Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)
