Venetian School

Famous quotes containing the words venetian and/or school:

“I was happy there,

part Swiss watch, part Indian head.”

“By school age, many boys experience pressure to reveal inner feelings as humiliating. They think their mothers are saying to them, “You must be hiding something shameful.” And shucking clams is a snap compared to prying secrets out of a boy who’s decided to “clam up.””
