No university in the world has ever risen to greatness without a correspondingly great library... When this is no longer true, then will our civilization have come to an end.

Lawrence Clark Powell

There are few earthly things more beautiful than a university a place where those who hate ignorance may strive to know, where those who perceive truth may strive to make others see.

John Masefield (1878-1967)

In the university they don't tell you that the greater part of the law is learning to tolerate fools

Doris Lessing (1919-)

Richard M. Nixon (1913-1994)

A university's essential character is that of being a center of free inquiry and criticism-a thing not to be sacrificed for anything else.

Richard Hofstadter

There is only one justification for universities, as distinguished from trade schools. They must be centers of criticism.

Robert M. Hutchins (1899-1977)

The university most worthy of rational admiration is that one in which your lonely thinker can feel himself lonely, most positively furthered, and most richly fed

William James (1842-1910)
