Famous quotes containing the words university of, university and/or hawaii:

    “It is in the nature of allegory, as opposed to symbolism, to beg the question of absolute reality. The allegorist avails himself of a formal correspondence between “ideas” and “things,” both of which he assumes as given; he need not inquire whether either sphere is “real” or whether, in the final analysis, reality consists in their interaction.”
    —Charles, Jr. Feidelson, U.S. educator, critic. Symbolism and American Literature, ch. 1, University of Chicago Press (1953)

    “Priests are not men of the world; it is not intended that they should be; and a University training is the one best adapted to prevent their becoming so.”
    —Samuel Butler (1835–1902)

    “It is the space inside that gives the drum its sound.”
    —Hawaiian saying no. 1189, ‘lelo No’Eau, collected, translated, and annotated by Mary Kawena Pukui, Bishop Museum Press, Hawaii (1983)
