A university is what a college becomes when the
faculty loses interest in students.

The things taught in schools and colleges are
not an education, but the means of an education.

*Something else an academic
education will do for you. If you go along with it any considerable distance,
it'll begin to give you an idea what size mind you have. What it'll fit and,
maybe, what it won't. After a while, you'll have an idea what kind of
thoughts your particular size mind should be wearing. For one thing, it may
save you an extraordinary amount of time trying on ideas that don't suit you,
aren't becoming to you. You'll begin to know your true measurements and dress
your mind accordingly.

College is like a fountain of knowledge--and
the students are there to drink.
