Public Colleges

Famous quotes containing the words public and/or colleges:

    The reason artists show so little interest
    In public freedom is because the freedom
    They’ve come to feel the need of is a kind
    No one can give them they can scarce attain
    The freedom of their own material....
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    If the factory people outside the colleges live under the discipline of narrow means, the people inside live under almost every other kind of discipline except that of narrow means—from the fruity austerities of learning, through the iron rations of English gentlemanhood, down to the modest disadvantages of occupying cold stone buildings without central heating and having to cross two or three quadrangles to take a bath.
    Margaret Halsey (b. 1910)
