Student Village Complex

Famous quotes containing the words student, village and/or complex:

    When our kids are young, many of us rush out to buy a cute little baby book to record the meaningful events of our young child’s life...But I’ve often thought there should be a second book, one with room to record the moral milestones of our child’s lives. There might be space to record dates she first shared or showed compassion or befriended a new student or thought of sending Grandma a get-well card or told the truth despite its cost.
    Fred G. Gosman (20th century)

    Zhivago: It seems you bombed the wrong village.
    Strelnikov: They always say that. And what does it matter? A village betrays us, a village is burned. The point made.
    Zhivago: Your point. Their village.
    Robert Bolt (1924–1995)

    All propaganda or popularization involves a putting of the complex into the simple, but such a move is instantly deconstructive. For if the complex can be put into the simple, then it cannot be as complex as it seemed in the first place; and if the simple can be an adequate medium of such complexity, then it cannot after all be as simple as all that.
    Terry Eagleton (b. 1943)
