Famous quotes containing the words community and/or schools:

“When a language creates—as it does—a community within the present, it does so only by courtesy of a community between the present and the past.”

“Our good schools today are much better than the best schools of yesterday. When I was your age and a pupil in school, our teachers were our enemies.
