High School Williams

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

    The chief want, in every State that I have been into, was a high and earnest purpose in its inhabitants. This alone draws out “the great resources” of Nature, and at last taxes her beyond her resources; for man naturally dies out of her.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    It is not that the Englishman can’t feel—it is that he is afraid to feel. He has been taught at his public school that feeling is bad form. He must not express great joy or sorrow, or even open his mouth too wide when he talks—his pipe might fall out if he did.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    Since Norf is up,
    An’ Souf is down,
    An’ Hebben is up,
    I’m upward boun’.
    —Lucy Ariel Williams Holloway (b. 1905)
