Went to consult my thesis and discovered I included little epigraphs on the chapter title pages for non-data chapters... apparently I was into detail or something!
(Also, these were probably quotes that I couldn't quite squeeze into the writing itself...)
Here's a thread:

Chapter 2: Background
"Knowledge emerges only through invention and re-invention, through the restless, impatient, continuing, hopeful inquiry human beings pursue in the world, with the world, and with each other."
Freire, 1970

Chapter 3: Methodology & Methods
"it is much less worrying to concern oneself with the correct details of method and methodology than to tangle with the philosophy of science.”
Chamberlain, 2000

Chapters 4, 5, 6 & 7 all contained data. Apparently I couldn't find any pithy quotes that would do. Or maybe I wanted to let the data speak for itself?
Chapter 8: Implications for Practice:
"It is a timeless argument, after all, present in most educational institutions and seldom solved. Students see things one way; faculty another"
Becker et al., 1961

Chapter 9: Summary
"The purpose of a university education is not to teach to the student a subject, but to teach him how to learn it."
Malleson, 1967

I still agree with all of these quotes! Comforting to know some things haven't changed.
Also, checking out my reference list, I can see a lot of authors there that I now get to call colleagues and collaborators. Pretty cool. Guess the PhD did its job!
