A lot of girls annoy me who go to university - one girl told me she was going to Oxford because it was something to do between leaving school and getting married. And I've got to pay for that being an income tax payer.
Jeffrey Bernard

A secret in the Oxford sense: you may tell it to only one person at a time.
Oliver Franks

But a girl of seventeen is not always thinking of books, especially in the Oxford summer term.
Mary A. Ward

For nine years, till the spring of 1881, we lived in Oxford, in a little house north of the Parks, in what was then the newest quarter of the University town.
Mary A. Ward

From 1931 to 1937, I was a Fellow and Lecturer in Economics at Hertford College, Oxford.
James Meade

I broke down while at Oxford, was rejected by a record number of medical tribunals during the War, and finally got permission to leave Oxford and do civilian work till the War ended.
Leonard Alfred George Strong

I could, I think, quite easily have gone to Oxford. I got four good A levels, but my father's income was such that I wouldn't have got a grant, and he wouldn't let me go to university, and that was the end of it.
Colin Baker

I had passed through the entire British education system studying literature, culminating in three years of reading English at Oxford, and they'd never told me about something as basic as the importance of point of view in fiction!
Philip Pullman

I literally fell among Quakers when I went up to Oxford.
Lionel Blue

I loved nearly all my teachers; but it was not till I went home to live at Oxford, in 1867, that I awoke intellectually to a hundred interests and influences that begin much earlier nowadays to affect any clever child.
Mary A. Ward

I was a modest, good-humoured boy. It is Oxford that has made me insufferable.
Max Beerbohm

I was at my best at a little past forty, when I was a professor at Oxford.
Godfrey Harold Hardy

I was educated at Bradfield College and Oxford, where I graduated in 1939.
Martin Ryle

I wonder anybody does anything at Oxford but dream and remember, the place is so beautiful. One almost expects the people to sing instead of speaking. It is all like an opera.
William Butler Yeats

In 1960, I went to St. Catherine's College, Oxford, and received the B.A. degree in Chemistry in 1964.
John E. Walker

In fact the experience at Oxford has really helped me later in life.
Imran Khan

In Oxford before the war, I had, with this interest in mind, written a short textbook entitled, An Introduction to Economic Analysis and Policy. It was now my intention to rewrite this work.
James Meade

Monty Python crowd; half of them came from Cambridge, and half of them came from Oxford. But, there seems to be this jewel, this sort of two headed tradition of doing comedy, of doing sketches, and that kind of thing.
Rowan Atkinson

My advantage as a woman and a human being has been in having a mother who believed strongly in women's education. She was an early undergraduate at Oxford, and her own mother was a doctor.
Antonia Fraser

My host at Richmond, yesterday morning, could not sufficiently express his surprise that I intended to venture to walk as far as Oxford, and still farther. He however was so kind as to send his son, a clever little boy, to show me the road leading to Windsor.
Karl Philipp Moritz
