Famous quotes containing the words high and/or school:

    “Young people of high school age can actually feel themselves changing. Progress is almost tangible. It’s exciting. It stimulates more progress. Nevertheless, growth is not constant and smooth. Erik Erikson quotes an aphorism to describe the formless forming of it. “I ain’t what I ought to be. I ain’t what I’m going to be, but I’m not what I was.””
    —Stella Chess (20th century)

    “Out of life’s school of war.—What does not destroy me, makes me stronger.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
