Famous quotes containing the words fund and/or raised:
“School success is not predicted by a child’s fund of facts or a precocious ability to read as much as by emotional and social measures; being self-assured and interested: knowing what kind of behavior is expected and how to rein in the impulse to misbehave; being able to wait, to follow directions, and to turn to teachers for help; and expressing needs while getting along with other children.”
—Daniel Goleman (20th century)
“But when a man poured fish into a pile,
It seemed they raised their little silver heads,
And sang”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
