College Boat Club

Famous quotes containing the words college, boat and/or club:

    Generally young men are regarded as radicals. This is a popular misconception. The most conservative persons I ever met are college undergraduates. The radicals are the men past middle life.

    But now, our boat climbs hesitates drops
    climbs hesitates crawls back
    climbs hesitates
    O be swift
    we have always known you wanted us.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    In another year I’ll have enough money saved. Then I’m gonna go back to my hometown in Oregon and I’m gonna build a house for my mother and myself. And join the country club and take up golf. And I’ll meet the proper man with the proper position. And I’ll make a proper wife who can run a proper home and raise proper children. And I’ll be happy, because when you’re proper, you’re safe.
    Daniel Taradash (b. 1913)
