Famous quotes containing the words schools and/or thought:

    If the women of the United States, with their free schools and all their enlarged liberties, are not superior to women brought up under monarchical forms of government, then there is no good in liberty.
    Anna Howard Shaw (1847–1919)

    Do not forget! For those green times now laugh
    In glee with sport and thought and lily dance;
    And fate in vanity now leaps to chaff
    Me smiling at her winking circumstance.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
