... the woman who grows up with the idea that she is simply to be an amiable animal, to be caressed and coaxed, is invariably a bitterly disappointed woman.

Love that has a game of chess in it can checkmate any man and solve the problem of life. Charles Dickens

reform dialect facts
There's a grosser irony about Politically Correct English.

I don’t think people realise how vital libraries are or what a colossal danger it would be if we were to lose any more.

school boys oxford
My experience came before most of you were born. My school was a state school in Leeds and the headmaster usually sent students to Leeds University but he didn't normally send them to Oxford or Cambridge. But the headmaster happened to have been to Cambridge and decided to try and push some of us towards Oxford and Cambridge. So, half a dozen of us tried - not all of us in history - and we all eventually got in. So, to that extent, it [The History Boys] comes out of my own experience. Alan Bennett

Musicals are hard for me because I got thrown out of the glee club in high school, because I couldn't sing in tune at the time.

When I studied how to think in school, I was taught that the first rule of logic was that a thing cannot both be and not be at the same time and in the same respect.
