My kids started school, so having a strong base in Melbourne has been a key priority. I'm not daunted by the travel. People say, 'It's so far to Australia,' and I say, 'You get on the plane, you eat well, you sleep, you wake up - and you're there.'
I went to university for a year, and I'm not one for schooling and have no enjoyment sitting in a classroom all day and ended up going to live in England for two years, just to travel. I worked in a bar in a hotel for a couple of years and had no int...
Where I grew up, I could be a punk rocker and a jock. But in college, it became apparent that those two worlds didn't mix. When I brought my guitar back to school after Thanksgiving break, a friend handed me his bass and said, 'Listen to the Ramones....

Sister Aloysius Beauvier: [about a boy who was sent home with a bloody nose] He's a fidgety boy. He will do anything to get out of his seat. He would set his foot on fire for half a day out of school.
Sister Aloysius Beauvier: This will not do. Mrs. Miller: It's just until June! Sister Aloysius Beauvier: [sternly] I'll throw your son out of this school! Mrs. Miller: [angrily] And why would you do that if it didn't start with him?
Vinz: Who made you a preacher? You know what's right and wrong? Why do you side with the assholes? Hubert: Who's the asshole? If you hate stayed in school, you'd know that hate breeds hate, Vinz.
Dae-su Oh: The TV is both a clock and a calendar. It's your school, your home, your church, your friend... [Dae-su masturbates to a pop star onscreen] Dae-su Oh: ... and your lover. But... my lover's song is too short.
Delmar O'Donnell: Hey mister! I don't mean to be tellin' tales out of school, but there's a feller in there that'll pay you ten dollars if you sing into his can.

Stacey Pilgrim: You should break up with your fake highschool girlfriend! Scott Pilgrim: Wait who told you? Stacey Pilgrim: Wallace. Scott Pilgrim: He's not even conscious!
Helena Ayala: I'm on the board of my son's school, I have fundraisers for adult literacy at my own home. I think I have a right to know if my husband is a legitimate business man. Arnie Metzger: Of course he is.
Madeline Drake: Bobby? Aren't you supposed to be in school? William Drake: Do you know him? [they look at Logan] Bobby: That's Professor... Logan. Mom, Dad... there's something I need to tell you.
Madeline Drake: You have to understand, we thought we were sending Bobby to a school for the gifted. Rogue: Bobby is gifted. You should see what he can do. [Bobby proceeds to freeze the tea his mother is drinking]
I went to grad school in San Francisco, and then left for New York City with my eye on Broadway. I had saved $5000, which seemed like a lot of money in my mind... until I realized it was going to take $2500 to get to New York and then the first and l...
