Quote by Wendy Cope

Bloody men are like bloody buses -- you wait for about a year and as soon as one approaches your stop two or three others appear.

Bloody men are like bloody buses -- you wait for about a yea

Summary

This quote humorously compares men to buses, suggesting that they seem to come into one's life all at once after a long period of waiting. It implies that just like buses arriving in multiples, men tend to show interest in someone simultaneously, creating a metaphorical "bus stop" experience. The word "bloody" adds a touch of frustration or annoyance to emphasize the sudden influx of attention from men. Overall, this quote amusingly captures the idea of men appearing in abundance when one least expects or desires it.

I think failure is nothing more than life's way of nudging you that you are off course. My attitude to failure is not attached to outcome, but in not trying. It is liberating. Most people attach failure to something not working out or how people perceive you. This way, it is about answering to yourself.

School is an institution for drilling children in cultural o

School is an institution for drilling children in cultural orientation. ...American classrooms, like educational institutions anywhere, express the values, preoccupations,and fears found in the culture as a whole. School has no choice; it must train the children to fit the culture as it is. ...Since education is always against some things and for others, it bears the burden of the cultural obessions. ...It thus comes about that most educational systems are imbued with anxiety and hostility, that they are against as many things as they are for. ... The function of education has never been to free the mind and the spirit of man, but to bind them...acquiescence, not originality. ...Schools are the central conserving force of the culture.
