Secondary School Students

Famous quotes containing the words secondary, school and/or students:

    Scientific reason, with its strict conscience, its lack of prejudice, and its determination to question every result again the moment it might lead to the least intellectual advantage, does in an area of secondary interest what we ought to be doing with the basic questions of life.
    Robert Musil (1880–1942)

    While most of today’s jobs do not require great intelligence, they do require greater frustration tolerance, personal discipline, organization, management, and interpersonal skills than were required two decades and more ago. These are precisely the skills that many of the young people who are staying in school today, as opposed to two decades ago, lack.
    James P. Comer (20th century)

    A complacent old Don of Divinity
    Used to boast of his daughter’s virginity:
    “They must have been dawdlin’,
    The students of Magdalen—
    It couldn’t have happened at Trinity.”
