Whitman High School

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

    That sport’st amid the lightning-flash and thunder-cloud,
    In them, in thy experiences, had’st thou my soul,
    What joys! what joys were thine!
    —Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    Humor does not include sarcasm, invalid irony, sardonicism, innuendo, or any other form of cruelty. When these things are raised to a high point they can become wit, but unlike the French and the English, we have not been much good at wit since the days of Benjamin Franklin.
    James Thurber (1894–1961)

    And so they have left us feeling tired and old.
    They never cared for school anyway.
    And they have left us with the things pinned on the bulletin board.
    And the night, the endless, muggy night that is invading our school.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
