Study Place

Famous quotes containing the words study and/or place:

    I urge you to spend your youth profitably in study and virtue.... In brief, let me see in you an abyss of knowledge.
    François Rabelais (1494–1553)

    I have wrestled with death. It is the most unexciting contest you can imagine. It takes place in an impalpable greyness, with nothing underfoot, with nothing around, without spectators, without clamor, without glory, without the great desire of victory, without the great desire of defeat, in a sickly atmosphere of tepid skepticism, without much belief in your own right, and still less in that of your adversary.
    Joseph Conrad (1857–1924)
