Government Schools

Famous quotes containing the words government and/or schools:

“The government does not concern me much, and I shall bestow the fewest possible thoughts on it. It is not many moments that I live under a government, even in this world. If a man is thought- free, fancy-free, imagination-free ... unwise rulers or reformers cannot fatally interrupt him.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“The schools begin with what they call the elements, and where do they end?”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
