Branching Nucleus

Famous quotes containing the words branching and/or nucleus:

    The moose will, perhaps, one day become extinct; but how naturally then, when it exists only as a fossil relic, and unseen as that, may the poet or sculptor invent a fabulous animal with similar branching and leafy horns ... to be the inhabitant of such a forest as this!
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I could not undertake to form a nucleus of an institution for the development of infant minds, where none already existed. It would be too cruel.
