Water Classes

Famous quotes containing the words water and/or classes:

    I pray thee, cease thy counsel,
    Which falls into mine ears as profitless
    As water in a sieve.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    My plan of instruction is extremely simple and limited. They learn, on week-days, such coarse works as may fit them for servants. I allow of no writing for the poor. My object is not to make fanatics, but to train up the lower classes in habits of industry and piety.
    Hannah More (1745–1833)
