Pikes Peak Council

Famous quotes containing the words pikes, peak and/or council:

    Though lads are making pikes again
    For some conspiracy,
    And crazy rascals rage their fill
    At human tyranny;
    My contemplations are of Time....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    In the mountains the shortest route is from peak to peak, but for that you must have long legs. Aphorisms should be peaks: and those to whom they are spoken should be big and tall of stature.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Parental attitudes have greater correlation with pupil achievement than material home circumstances or variations in school and classroom organization, instructional materials, and particular teaching practices.
    —Children and Their Primary Schools, vol. 1, ch. 3, Central Advisory Council for Education, London (1967)
