Famous quotes containing the words secondary and/or school:
“A man may be defeated by his own secondary successes.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
“The child to be concerned about is the one who is actively unhappy, [in school].... In the long run, a child’s emotional development has a far greater impact on his life than his school performance or the curriculum’s richness, so it is wise to do everything possible to change a situation in which a child is suffering excessively.”
—Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)
