I assume that - because you can get degrees in journalism from very reputable universities - I assume that people can be trained to be journalists. I've never been entirely certain that anyone can be trained to be a novelist in the same way.
William Gibson
Image
My great project is to undo the moral and intellectual damage of most universities
Dennis Prager
Image
Prisons are universities of crime, maintained by the state.
Peter Kropotkin
Image
You can play guitar in your canteen, you know, your hair might be longer, but there's a lot more to playing than travelling around universities and things.
Syd Barrett
Image
I wasn't allowed to play in some universities in the United States and out of twenty-five concerts, twenty-three were canceled unless I would substitute my black bass player for my old white bass player, which I wouldn't do.
Dave Brubeck

Mark Zuckerberg recently announced that he will donate $45 billion of his wealth to philanthropy. Two years ago, my husband and I decided to endow $100 million to set up the SOHO China Scholars. This program will give financial aid to Chinese students so they can attend the best universities in the world.

The heads of leading American universities say that if they selected applicants based on grades alone, their student bodies would be 100 percent Asian.
Paul Achleitner
Image
The notion that the church, the press, and the universities should serve the state is essentially a Communist notion. In a free society these institutions must be wholly free - which is to say that their function is to serve as checks upon the state.
Alan Barth

Shared governance is often the critical element that is missing in Asian universities, no matter how talented the faculty may be. Either it is ministries of education that are trying to run things, or in private institutions - those who control the funds. Neither group knows much about teaching and research.
Henry Rosovsky

They teach anything in universities today. You can major in mud pies.
Orson Welles
Image
Let's do 150 stops. Let's go to 75 universities, and let's spread this gospel of Internet entrepreneurship everywhere we go.
Alexis Ohanian

Many who are self-taught far excel the doctors, masters, and bachelors of the most renowned universities.
Ludwig von Mises
Image
Postcolonialism is the invention of some rich guys from India who saw that they could make a good career in top Western universities by playing on the guilt of white liberals.
Slavoj Žižek
Image
English is not the primary language for universities in China, Korea, and Japan, but they are being evaluated on the basis of publications in English and courses taught in English.
Henry Rosovsky
Image
Economics taught in most of the elite universities are practically useless in my context. My country [Afghanistan] is dominated by drug economy and a mafia textbook economics does not work in my context.

I do not know how wicked American millionaires are, but as I travel about and see the results of their generosity in the form of hospitals, churches, public libraries, universities, parks, recreation grounds, art museums and theatres I wonder what on earth we should do without them.
William Lyon Phelps
Image
When the nazis came to power, I looked to the universities that prided themselves upon their intellectual freedom, and they failed me. I looked to the German press, which prided itself on the freedom of the press, and it failed me. Until at last the churches stood alone, and that for which I once had little regard earned my respect.
Albert Einstein
Image
For one, thing, the media are dominated by the irreligious. So are universities.
Rodney Stark

If written directions alone would suffice, libraries wouldn't need to have the rest of the universities attached.
Judith Martin

I held a variety of jobs - most notably ten years working in universities - and kept on writing.
Thomas Perry
Image
Have not prisons - which kill all will and force of character in man, which enclose within their walls more vices than are met with on any other spot of the globe - always been universities of crime?
Peter Kropotkin
Image
In our greatest universities, naturalism - the doctrine that nature is all there is - is the virtually unquestioned assumption that underlies not only natural science but intellectual work of all kinds.
Philip Johnson
Image
Most American elementary schools and high schools, and nearly all colleges and universities, teach everything that is significant from a liberal/Left perspective.
Dennis Prager
Image
When I said that the mentally ill should be in institutions, public universities weren't the kind of institutions I had in mind.
