Famous quotes containing the words student and/or body:
“One must be a student before one can be a teacher.”
—Chinese proverb.
“I shook off the sweat and the sun. I understood that I had destroyed the balance of the day, the exceptional silence of a beach where I had been happy. Then I shot four more times at an inert body which the bullets penetrated without appearing so. And it was like four brief knocks that I struck on the door of misfortune.”
—Albert Camus (19131960)
