Famous quotes containing the words township, high and/or school:
“A township where one primitive forest waves above while another primitive forest rots below,such a town is fitted to raise not only corn and potatoes, but poets and philosophers for the coming ages. In such a soil grew Homer and Confucius and the rest, and out of such a wilderness comes the Reformer eating locusts and wild honey.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“The chief want, in every State that I have been into, was a high and earnest purpose in its inhabitants. This alone draws out the great resources of Nature, and at last taxes her beyond her resources; for man naturally dies out of her.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“Im tired of playing worn-out depressing ladies in frayed bathrobes. Im going to get a new hairdo and look terrific and go back to school and even if nobody notices, Im going to be the most self-fulfilled lady on the block.”
—Joanne Woodward (b. 1930)
