Famous quotes containing the words high, school and/or baseball:
“So in majestic cadence rise and fall
The mighty undulations of thy song,
O sightless bard, Englands Monides!
And ever and anon, high over all
Uplifted, a ninth wave superb and strong,
Floods all the soul with its melodious seas.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (18091882)

—Angela Carter (19401992)
“When Dad cant get the diaper on straight, we laugh at him as though he were trying to walk around in high-heel shoes.

—Michael K. Meyerhoff (20th century)
