Ehrungen / Honors Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages über Ehrungen / Honors:

As a direct line to human feeling, empathic experience, genuine language and detail, poetry is everything that headline news is not.

Society honors its living conformists and its dead troublemakers.

Mignon McLaughlin

I studied English literature in the honors program, which means that you had to take courses in various centuries.

Jeffrey Eugenides

Steve Wozniak

I was lined up to do this honors degree course in biology, of all things, for no better reason than I got high marks in it. I decided I didn't want to be removing worms' hearts for the rest of my life in Northern Ontario. I thought I would try acting. So, I went to England to study drama. I got Shakespeared out.

My high school career was undistinguished except for math and science.

Shervin Pishevar

Nowadays nothing but money counts: a fortune brings honors, friendships; the poor man everywhere lies low.
