High School Williams

Famous quotes containing the words high, school and/or williams:

    I know not how,
    But I do find it cowardly and vile,
    For fear of what might fall, so to prevent
    The time of life—arming myself with patience
    To stay the providence of some high powers
    That govern us below.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Anyone who has been to an English public school will always feel comparatively at home in prison. It is the people brought up in the gay intimacy of the slums ... who find prison so soul-destroying.
    Evelyn Waugh (1903–1966)

    I compare her
    to a fallen leaf.

    The noiseless wheels of my car
    rush with a crackling sound over
    dried leaves as I bow and pass smiling.
    —William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
