University Quotes

When I was a young person I went to the university and I learned a rational language, to think with the left side of the brain. But in the right side of the brain you have intuition and imagination. Words are not the truth; they indicate the way to go, but you need to go alone, in silence. Symbols have a language that kills the words Picture Quote #1

People don’t really know themselves until they’re 30. Like most people nowadays, I went to university, got a degree and wandered for a bit. I trained to be a chartered accountant, which I didn’t much enjoy, and it was only slowly that the idea of becoming a creative writer gelled Picture Quote #1

It is the function of a liberal university not to give right answers, but to ask right questions Picture Quote #1

Personally, I liked working for the university. They gave us money and facilities. We didn’t have to produce anything. You’ve never been out of college. You don’t know what it’s like out there! I’ve worked in the private sector... they expect results! Picture Quote #1

No one should be held back from realising their potential by fears that they will not be able to afford to go to university or that they will graduate with unmanageable levels of debt Picture Quote #1

It didn’t matter that there were actually two lakes there,... It didn’t matter that he had only $300 in his pocket. He had the gall, or the zeal, to call it not a school, or a college, but a university Picture Quote #1

So I want to identify, if I can, the most important thing that we discover in life. At least, it is the most important thing that I have discovered. I will share it with you, like a precious jewel, fit for this occasion. I refer to love. Love for one another. Love for our community. Love for others everywhere in the world. Love transcends even scholarship, cleverness and university degrees. It is greater than pride and wealth. It endures when worldly vanities fade Picture Quote #1

The modern university does not exist to teach alone... It exists also to serve the democracy of which it is a product and an ornament... The university rests on the public will and on public appreciation Picture Quote #1

Sin in the theater, I can observe now, is comparable to education in a university: it is there for those who wish to take advantage of it, but fewer do than you might suspect Picture Quote #1

I was in the school plays, I did a lot of music. I carried on through university for short films and loads of plays Picture Quote #1

There’s one thing my old man taught me and it’s the best thing he taught me. It wasn’t education at college or university – it was commonsense Picture Quote #1

I went to university for a couple of years and I didn’t enjoy university. The studying and the accountancy, economics, I just hated that stuff. Now the irony is here I am lawyer, accountant, I do it all day every day and sit at a desk. So I’ve never ended up where I wanted to be in many ways. I always wanted to be a farmer Picture Quote #1

In grammar school they taught me that a frog turning into a prince was a fairy tale. In the university they taught me that a frog turning into a prince was a fact! Picture Quote #1

To talk about the reality of life here and the work that you do here at the university Picture Quote #1

I learned early on that one of the secrets to campus leadership was the simplest thing of all: speak to people coming down the sidewalk before they speak to you. I did that in college. I did it when I carried my papers. I would always look ahead and speak to the person coming toward me. If I knew them, I would call them by name, but even if I didn’t I would still speak to them. Before long, I probably knew more students than anybody in the university, and they recognized me and considered me their friend Picture Quote #1

I did maths for a year at university. I don’t think I was very good at it. And some people would say it shows Picture Quote #1

Diversity of opinion within the framework of loyalty to our freesociety is not only basic to a university but to the entire nation Picture Quote #1

My university degree is in art and, yes, I do a lot of drawing for all my books. I have a big drafting table set up in a spare bedroom and I cover it with maps and house plans and sketches that I use in the books. Also, I truly love architecture, so that plays a big part in all my books Picture Quote #1

To misstate, or even merely understate, the relation of the universities to beauty is one kind of error that can be made. A university is among the precious things that can be destroyed Picture Quote #1

The world is nothing but a school of love; our relationships with our husband or wife, with our children and parents, with our friends and relatives are the university in which we are meant to learn what love and devotion truly are Picture Quote #1

There’s nothing you can learn in three years studying media at university that you can’t learn in just one month on a local paper Picture Quote #1

When I was young I had so many inferiority complexes. I had an inferiority complex because I didn’t go to university. I had an inferiority complex because I didn’t train. Then it gets tiring. And you do get bored of it Picture Quote #1

Luckily my parents were not against my ambition, they’ve always been very supportive. But they were adamant that I went to university first Picture Quote #1

If my university years taught me anything, it was that the smarter a woman’s background, the more primitive her bedchamber Picture Quote #1

Drama made me happy. Being on stage made me feel alive. But I did what a lot of people do, and that’s follow this path of leaving school and going to university. It was only at university that I realised the only thing that would make me a satisfied man was to do what I loved Picture Quote #1

All my mates are at university, and it’s a life I haven’t had a chance to enjoy, so it’s great to turn up and sample a bit of it Picture Quote #1

I thought I wanted to go to drama school or university, and that would have been a completely different life. But what got me was the sound, and hearing it. Hearing everything so loud, I loved that back in the studio. I loved that from the very beginning Picture Quote #1

It is one thing to play for your university. It is another to play for your country Picture Quote #1

It is possible to get an education at a university. It has been done; not often Picture Quote #1
