Pell grants are the foundation of Federal student aid. As someone who attended college with the help of Pell grants and as chairman of the Pell Grant Caucus, I know how important they are for our Nation's low-income students. Ric Keller
I am here to give the American people some straight talk about higher education. Some have said we might have cut financial aid for college students. The truth is we have expanded access to college for our neediest students through the record growth of the Pell grant program. Ric Keller

I had just arrived in New York from California. I was nineteen years old and excited beyond belief. I was an art student and an acting student and behaved as most young actors did - meaning that there was no such thing as a good actor, 'cause you yourself hadn't shown up yet. Robert Redford
I was probably a B student in high school, but it wasn't until I got to college that I said, 'Oh! This is what it's all about.' And then I became an A student. I studied journalism in college and that's what really kicked it into high gear for me. Giuliana Rancic

M. H. Abrams quote: "John Updike is always fun. And one of my former students, Tom..."
John Updike is always fun. And one of my former students, Tom Pynchon. And Harold Bloom, another former student. M. H. Abrams
I am a student of life, and don't want to miss any experience. There's poetry in this sort of thing, you know--or perhaps you don't know, but it's all the same. H. P. Lovecraft
Wally Lamb quote: "Look, don't just stare at the pages," I used to tell my..."
Look, don't just stare at the pages," I used to tell my students. "Become the characters. Live inside the book. Wally Lamb
Dwight L. Moody quote: "I never saw a fruit-bearing Christian who was not a student of..."
I never saw a fruit-bearing Christian who was not a student of the Bible. Dwight L. Moody
Those things for which the most money is demanded are never the things which the student most wants. Tuition, for instance, is an important item in the term bill, while for the far more valuable education which he gets by associating with the most cultivated of his contemporaries no charge is made. Henry David Thoreau
Christ, it is sad, sad to see on quite a few of these faces - young ones particularly - a glum, defeated look. Why do they feel this way about their lives? Sure, they are underpaid. Sure, they have no great prospects, in the commercial sense. Sure, they can't enjoy the bliss of mingling with corporation executives. But isn't it any consolation to be with students who are still three-quarters alive? Isn't it some tiny satisfaction to be of use, instead of helping to turn out useless consumer... Christopher Isherwood
Sometimes he spent hours together in the great libraries of Paris, those catacombs of departed authors, rummaging among their hoards of dusty and obsolete works in quest of ghoul, feeding in the charnel house of decayed literature."From "The Adventure of the German Student Washington Irving
