Famous quotes containing the words learning and/or schools:
“Nature will not let us fret and fume. She does not like our benevolence or our learning much better than she likes our frauds and wars. When we come out of the caucus, or the bank, or the abolition-convention, or the temperance-meeting, or the transcendental club, into the fields and woods, she says to us, “so hot? my little Sir.””
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The schools begin with what they call the elements, and where do they end?”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
