Baptist Day School

Famous quotes containing the words baptist, day and/or school:

    You should approach Joyce’s Ulysses as the illiterate Baptist preacher approaches the Old Testament: with faith.
    William Faulkner (1897–1962)

    Draw up the dew. Swell with pacific violence.
    Take shape in silence. Grow as the clouds grew.
    Beautiful brood the cornlands, and you are heavy;
    Leafy the boughs—they also hide big fruit.
    —Cecil Day Lewis (1904–1972)

    A sure proportion of rogue and dunce finds its way into every school and requires a cruel share of time, and the gentle teacher, who wished to be a Providence to youth, is grown a martinet, sore with suspicions; knows as much vice as the judge of a police court, and his love of learning is lost in the routine of grammars and books of elements.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
