Famous quotes containing the words mixed, community and/or school:
“Where might is mixed with wit, there is too good an accord in a government.”
—Elizabeth I (1533–1603)
“The community has no bribe that will tempt a wise man.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“I’m not making light of prayers here, but of so-called school prayer, which bears as much resemblance to real spiritual experience as that freeze-dried astronaut food bears to a nice standing rib roast. From what I remember of praying in school, it was almost an insult to God, a rote exercise in moving your mouth while daydreaming or checking out the cutest boy in the seventh grade that was a far, far cry from soul-searching.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
