Penny Proud

Famous quotes containing the words penny and/or proud:

    As long as learning is connected with earning, as long as certain jobs can only be reached through exams, so long must we take this examination system seriously. If another ladder to employment was contrived, much so-called education would disappear, and no one would be a penny the stupider.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    Speak, then, my Beauty, to this dire putrescence,
    To the worm that shall kiss your proud estate,
    That I have kept the divine form and the essence
    Of my festered loves inviolate!
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
