Van Nuys High

Famous quotes containing the words van and/or high:

    “I philosophize from the vantage point only of our own
    provincial conceptual scheme and scientific epoch, true; but I know no better.”
    —Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)

    “What generous beliefs console
    The brave whom Fate denies the goal!
    If others reach it, is content:
    To Heaven’s high will his will is bent.
    Firm on his heart relied,
    What lot soe’er betide,
    Work of his hand
    He nor repents nor grieves,
    Pleads for itself the fact,
    As unrepenting Nature leaves
    Her every act.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
