Whittier Union High

Famous quotes containing the words whittier, union and/or high:

    God pity them both! and pity us all,
    Who vainly the dreams of youth recall.

    The saddest are these: “It might have been!”
    —John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)

    [Let] the Union of the States be cherished and perpetuated. Let the open enemy to it be regarded as a Pandora with her box opened; and the disguised one, as the Serpent creeping with his deadly wiles into paradise.
    James Madison (1751–1836)

    Manhattan. Sometimes from beyond the skyscrapers, across the hundreds of thousands of high walls, the cry of a tugboat finds you in your insomnia in the middle of the night, and you remember that this desert of iron and cement is an island.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)
