College Opened

Famous quotes containing the words college and/or opened:

    The mode of founding a college is, commonly, to get up a subscription of dollars and cents, and then, following blindly the principles of a division of labor to its extreme,—a principle which should never be followed but with circumspection,—to call in a contractor who makes this a subject of speculation,... and for these oversights successive generations have to pay.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    When man entered the atomic age, he opened a door into a new world. What we eventually find in that new world, nobody can predict.
    —Ted Sherdeman. Gordon Douglas. Dr. Medford (Edmund Gwenn)
