Twenty Grades

Famous quotes containing the words twenty and/or grades:

    About twenty years ago
    Two girls came in where I worked
    A bosomy English rose
    And her friend in specs I could talk to.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    He suggested that there might be men of genius in the lowest grades of life, however permanently humble and illiterate, who take their own view always, or do not pretend to see at all; who are as bottomless even as Walden Pond was thought to be, though they may be dark and muddy.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
