“People will frighten you about a graduation...They use words you don't hear often... "And we wish you Godspeed." It is a warning, Godpeed. It means you are no longer welcome here at these prices.”
Bill Cosby
“I used to tell women graduate students, half-seriously, that the role of slightly rebellious daughter was one of the better roles for women living in patriarchy.”
Carol Gilligan
“American universities are organized on the principle of the nuclear rather than the extended family. Graduate students are grimly trained to be technicians rather than connoisseurs. The old German style of universal scholarship has gone.”
Camille Paglia
“Think about it. If you are single, after graduation there isn't one occasion where people celebrate you. ... Hallmark doesn't make a "congratulations, you didn't marry the wrong guy" card. And where's the flatware for going on vacation alone?”
Sarah Jessica Parker
“With the graduation of six starting players, we will have a lot of new faces to integrate into the lineup. We will be so inexperienced that anyone who steps up will get a chance to play. We will be focusing on playing defense behind Heather and giving her good offensive support to needed to win games.”
Bev Lowden
“Graduates who haven't received full-time job offers are looking for other things like part-time employment. Some are willing to do unpaid internships to get their foot in the door of a company that may convert them to a full-time hire when things change.”
Camille Luckenbaugh
“Do not go where the path may lead; go instead where there is no path and leave a trail”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
