Famous quotes containing the words college and/or career:

    “The mode of founding a college is, commonly, to get up a subscription of dollars and cents, and then, following blindly the principles of a division of labor to its extreme,—a principle which should never be followed but with circumspection,—to call in a contractor who makes this a subject of speculation,... and for these oversights successive generations have to pay.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “I restore myself when I’m alone. A career is born in public—talent in privacy.”
    —Marilyn Monroe (1926–1962)
