University Fight

Famous quotes containing the words university and/or fight:

“It is in the nature of allegory, as opposed to symbolism, to beg the question of absolute reality. The allegorist avails himself of a formal correspondence between “ideas” and “things,” both of which he assumes as given; he need not inquire whether either sphere is “real” or whether, in the final analysis, reality consists in their interaction.”
—Charles, Jr. Feidelson, U.S. educator, critic. Symbolism and American Literature, ch. 1, University of Chicago Press (1953)

“And everybody praised the Duke
Who such a fight did win.—
But what good came of it at last?
Quoth little Peterkin.—
Why that I cannot tell, said he,
But ‘twas a famous victory.”
—Robert Southey (1774–1843)
