Famous quotes containing the words areas and/or study:

    If a walker is indeed an individualist there is nowhere he can’t go at dawn and not many places he can’t go at noon. But just as it demeans life to live alongside a great river you can no longer swim in or drink from, to be crowded into safer areas and hours takes much of the gloss off walking—one sport you shouldn’t have to reserve a time and a court for.
    Edward Hoagland (b. 1932)

    One thing I am determined on is that by the time I die my brain shall weigh as much as a man’s if study and learning can make it so.
    M. Carey Thomas (1857–1935)
