Whitman High School

Famous quotes containing the words whitman, high and/or school:

    The Past—the dark unfathom’d retrospect!
    The teeming gulf—the sleepers and the shadows!
    The past! the infinite greatness of the past!
    For what is the present after all but a growth out of the past?
    —Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    Under an old oak, whose boughs were mossed with age
    And high top bald with dry antiquity.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Sure, you can love your child when he or she has just brought home a report card with straight “A’s.” It’s a lot harder, though, to show the same love when teachers call you from school to tell you that your child hasn’t handed in any homework since the beginning of the term.
    —The Lions Clubs International and the Quest Nation. The Surprising Years, II, ch.3 (1985)
