School Building

Famous quotes containing the words school and/or building:

    “I wish to speak a word for Nature, for absolute freedom and wildness, as contrasted with a freedom and culture merely civil,—to regard man as an inhabitant, or a part and parcel of Nature, rather than as a member of society. I wish to make an extreme statement, if so I may make an emphatic one, for there are enough champions of civilization: the minister and the school committee and every one of you will take care of that.”
    —Henry David David (1817–1862)

    “The limits of prudence: one cannot jump out of a burning building gradually.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
