School Building

Famous quotes containing the words school and/or building:

    “A drunkard would not give money to sober people. He said they would only eat it, and buy clothes and send their children to school with it.”
    —Samuel Butler (1835–1902)

    “A building is akin to dogma; it is insolent, like dogma. Whether or no it is permanent, it claims permanence, like a dogma. People ask why we have no typical architecture of the modern world, like impressionism in painting. Surely it is obviously because we have not enough dogmas; we cannot bear to see anything in the sky that is solid and enduring, anything in the sky that does not change like the clouds of the sky.”
    —Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
