dbpprop:quoteProperty
  • "Live for St Thomas'. Do anything for her whenever you are asked to do it; if necessary die for her"
  • "What I conclude on behalf of St Thomas' is that year in year out, she has sent out into every walk of public life so many men not necessarily born with the advantage of wealth & influence, not too well endowed with the enviable gift of superior intellect but nevertheless decent men who marry decent wives and by their own endeavors set up decent homes: men who will stand firm against the bogus doctrines which emerge from time to time in the life of every nation: men who stand for common sense, integrity, courage and faith in the tradition of liberty and fair play"
  • "You belong to one of the best schools in the world, a school with splendid traditions and a most honourable name and I charge you to try and hand down those traditions and that name to those who come after you, untarnished and unimpaired. Be proud of being Thomians, and make the college proud of numbering you among its sons. Remember that whatever you do and wherever you go, your life and your action will reflect either credit or discredit on the college where you were trained and to which you owe so much. You have learned the best lessons in the world at S. Thomas' College. I trust, not only English and Classics and Mathematics, but true manliness and truth, courage, purity and all those things that make a man and a gentleman. Try never to forget them but be men and gentlemen always"
