Upper Barton Spring

Famous quotes containing the words upper, barton and/or spring:

    I am not afraid of the priests in the long-run. Scientific method is the white ant which will slowly but surely destroy their fortifications. And the importance of scientific method in modern practical life—always growing and increasing—is the guarantee for the gradual emancipation of the ignorant upper and lower classes, the former of whom especially are the strength of the priests.
    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

    ... it has always proved that the grandeur of a nation was shown by the respect paid to woman.
    —Clara Barton (1821–1912)

    Honour, thou first didst close
    The spring of all delight,
    Denying water to the amorous thirst;
    Torquato Tasso (1544–1595)
