I did try to get a few of those teen high-school movies, but they just didn't like me. I guess I wasn't a certain type.
As a result of his experiments he concluded that imitation was a real evil that had to be broken before real rhetoric teaching could begin. This imitation seemed to be an external compulsion. Little children didn’t have it. It seemed to come later ...
There is no school equal to a decent home and no teacher equal to a virtuous parent.
When it comes to learning success, action is your school, and failure your teacher.
I had a terrible education. I attended a school for emotionally disturbed teachers.
I never intended to be a teacher. I just like going to school and learning things.
We know the parental support, community support, makes a difference. It's not just the metrics of testing and putting pressure on the schools and on the teachers.
I'm all self-taught. I never had a teacher. Even for English, and French, and German, I hardly went to school.
I've got a friend who is a lion tamer. He used to be a school teacher till he lost his nerve.
I was a hyper kid in school and the teacher suggested to my mom she needed to do something with me.
My association of jail to high school is probably on the basic similarity of a communicable social-setting. These few settings represent a frame of reference: a somewhat fraternal order (though I never belonged to an actual fraternity) where people c...
There was no girls' cross-country team at our high school, since cross-country courses were two or three miles long, and, at that distance, a girl's uterus could fall out.

While lunch and conversation lasted roughly an hour, not at all a lot of time, I came away feeling like I’d known Zach for years. It was as if we’d grown up together and we’d been best friends since high school, which is ridiculous because in h...
I'd be satisfied just coaching in high school. I turned down a number of colleges when I was teaching in South Bend, Indiana, before I went into the service. I honestly believe that if I hadn't enlisted in the service, I would never have left high sc...
I have really fond memories of growing up in Chicago, and I always love going back. I still have a lot of really good friends from high school that I go to dinner with. It's kind of become a tradition when I go out there to do a show to give a few fr...
But even in elementary school and junior high, I was very interested in space and in the space program.
I thought about going to NYU film school - that was this ideal to me. But I didn't make any kind of grades in high school.
I grew up going to school and high school and then shooting a movie for a few months. It's an odd way to grow up and is kind of forced maturity.
I was raised Catholic, and then I kind of wandered away somewhere in high-school. I never got confirmed, which is a big deal.
If American schooling is inadequate now, just imagine how much more obsolete it will be when today's kindergarten students graduate from high school in just 12 years.
