Famous quotes containing the words scholarship and/or foundation:

    “Men have a respect for scholarship and learning greatly out of proportion to the use they commonly serve.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Surrealism is not a school of poetry but a movement of liberation.... A way of rediscovering the language of innocence, a renewal of the primordial pact, poetry is the basic text, the foundation of the human order. Surrealism is revolutionary because it is a return to the beginning of all beginnings.”
    —Octavio Paz (b. 1914)
