Master Degrees

Famous quotes containing the words master and/or degrees:

    His wit all see-saw, between that and this,
    Now high, now low, now Master up, now Miss,
    And he himself one vile antithesis.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    Gradually we come to admit that Shakespeare understands a greater extent and variety of human life than Dante; but that Dante understands deeper degrees of degradation and higher degrees of exaltation.
