Geography Quotes
"They went to sleep under the stars, which the maths teachers would count, the astronomy teachers would measure, and the literature teachers would name. The geography teachers got lost in the woods and fell into bear traps." --T.Pratchett (and courtesy of D.Gabrielson)
"The philosophy of the school was quite simple - the bright boys specialised in Latin, the not so bright in science and the rest managed with geography or the like." -- Aaron Klug (Physicist)
"Mathematics was hard, dull work. Geography pleased me more. For dancing I was quite enthusiastic." John James Audubon
"Anyone who believes that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach flunked geography" -- Robert Byrne
