University Star Lake

Famous quotes containing the words university, star and/or lake:

    “Within the university ... you can study without waiting for any efficient or immediate result. You may search, just for the sake of searching, and try for the sake of trying.

    —Jacques Derrida (b. 1930)

    “One thing about being successful is that I stopped being afraid of dying. Once you’re a star you’re dead already. You’re embalmed.”

    “Turn back,
    back
    to the lake of Delos;
    lest all the song notes
    pause and break
    across a blood-stained throat....”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
