Famous quotes containing the words student and/or body:
“The roaring alongside he takes for granted,
and that every so often the world is bound to shake.

in a state of controlled panic, a student of Blake.”

“Right now he’s suffering the cruelest tortures the Germans can devise. But he won’t talk—not as long as he can stand that punishment. And no human body can stand it too long—not even this wonderful, tough guy from Minnesota.”
—John Monks, Jr., U.S. screenwriter, Sy Bartlett, and Henry Hathaway. Gibson (Frank Lattimore? Walter Abel? Melville Cooper?)
