Luckily, the public school system that I was in had a really great drama program, so I plunged into that. It really sort of kept me afloat because I was bored in school. ~ Allison Scagliotti
Bresnahan School quotes by Allison Scagliotti
It's like they can smell the public school on me. ~ Caroline Kepnes
Bresnahan School quotes by Caroline Kepnes
Me, I was waiting tables of 13 and married at 19. I graduated from public schools, and taught elementary school. ~ Elizabeth Warren
Bresnahan School quotes by Elizabeth Warren
It wasn't until I was 18, when I was graduating high school, that I went and bought a guitar on a whim. ~ Sam Hunt
Bresnahan School quotes by Sam Hunt
Saint Bartleby's School for Young Gentlemen
Annual Report
Student: Artemis Fowl II
Year: First
Fees: Paid
Tutor: Dr Po

Language Arts
As far as I can tell, Artemis has made absolutely no progress since the beginning of the year. This is because his abilities are beyond the scope of my experience. He memorizes and understands Shakespeare after a single reading. He finds mistakes in every exercise I administer, and has taken to chuckling gently when I attempt to explain some of the more complex texts. Next year I intend to grant his request and give him a library pass during my class.

Mathematics
Artemis is an infuriating boy. One day he answers all my questions correctly, and the next every answer is wrong. He calls this an example of the chaos theory, and says that he is only trying to prepare me for the real world. He says the notion of infinity is ridiculous. Frankly, I am not trained to deal with a boy like Artemis. Most of my pupils have trouble counting without the aid of their fingers. I am sorry to say, there is nothing I can teach Artemis about mathematics, but someone should teach him some manners.

Social Studies
Artemis distrusts all history texts, because he says history was written by the victors. He prefers living history, where survivors of certain events can actually be interviewed. Obviously this makes studying the Middle Ages somewhat difficult. Artemis has asked for permission to build a ~ Eoin Colfer
Bresnahan School quotes by Eoin Colfer
Mediocrity, I discovered, was the great camouflage; the great protective coloring. Those boys who did not fail, yet did not excel, were left alone, free of the demands of the master who might wish to groom them for glory and of the school bully who might make them his scapegoat. That simple fact was the first great discovery of my life. ~ Alan Bradley
Bresnahan School quotes by Alan Bradley
My high school English teacher in junior year, Dr. Robert Parsons, assigned us some Poe stories, including 'The Black Cat' and 'The Purloined Letter.' Being an animal person, I had trouble with 'The Black Cat!' I got hooked instead by 'The Purloined Letter,' a Poe story with detective C. Auguste Dupin. ~ Matthew Pearl
Bresnahan School quotes by Matthew Pearl
Even though I only have a high-school degree, I'm a professional student. ~ Bill Gates
Bresnahan School quotes by Bill Gates
I am the worst at doing my hair. I have no clue how to do it; I just feel like I need to go to hair beauty school or something because it's really becoming a problem. ~ Kourtney Kardashian
Bresnahan School quotes by Kourtney Kardashian
I used to do school plays. I never really took any acting classes. I'm just a natural ham, I guess. ~ Queen Latifah
Bresnahan School quotes by Queen Latifah
In high school, I weighed 175 to 180. I looked like Abraham Lincoln. I was 6-foot-3, biggest thing in the class, but tall, not fat. ~ Willard Scott
Bresnahan School quotes by Willard Scott
School is something that you learn - reading and writing. Education is what you learn from the family, from the environment, from the community. ~ Bunker Roy
Bresnahan School quotes by Bunker Roy
I try to stay far away from all of them. I was tempted to go to my snotty high school reunion, but luckily I resisted the urge
when I received the hand-out that described what everyone is doing now, I fell asleep reading it. Boring! ~ Princess Superstar
Bresnahan School quotes by Princess Superstar
If you have free universal health care and free education supported by public school taxes, then you have more bargaining power with your bosses, but if everything is privatized, and ordinary Americans have to pay for everything through their wages, then they're at the mercy of their employers. If the workers know they'll be ruined if they lost their jobs, they're not going to be uppity. You want to break their spirit. ~ Michael Lind
Bresnahan School quotes by Michael Lind
Logic was my favorite class in school. I like it because it's a way to see HOW what someone says is nonsense. ~ Donna Leon
Bresnahan School quotes by Donna Leon
I went to Ohio University studying arts and history, and playing football. But I was only interested in girls, my pals and sports. I only did the minimum for school. ~ Ed O'Neill
Bresnahan School quotes by Ed O'Neill
The constant need to move on, and to document progress, in normal schools means that education tends to be cut up into bite sized task.. ~ Guy Claxton
Bresnahan School quotes by Guy Claxton
I went to a local high school in Lancaster. Not much I can say about it; it was pretty much your typical public high school back in Pennsylvania. ~ Jonathan Groff
Bresnahan School quotes by Jonathan Groff
When I first came to Oxford, I struggled to feel comfortable in an Anglican, public school-dominated institution. ~ Niall Ferguson
Bresnahan School quotes by Niall Ferguson
... schools in many industrialized nations were not, for the most part, designed to produce innovative thinkers or questioners -- their primary purpose was to produce workers. The author Seth Godin writes, "Our grandfathers and great grandfathers built schools to train people to have a lifetime of productive labor as part of the industrialized economy. And it worked."
To create good workers, educations systems put a premium on compliancy and rote memorization of basic knowledge -- excellent qualities in an industrial worker. (Or, as the cartoonist and Simpsons creator Matt Groening puts it, "it seems the main rule that traditional schools teach is how to sit in rows quietly, which is perfect training for grown-up work in a dull office or factory, but not so good for education.")
And not so good for questioning: To the extent a school is like a factory, students who inquire about "the way things are" could be seen as insubordinate. It raises, at least in my mind, a question that may seem extreme: If schools were build on a factory model, were they actually designed to squelch questions? ~ Warren Berger
Bresnahan School quotes by Warren Berger
I've always been quite an active person especially when I was younger. When I was in primary school, I used to play lots of sports. I was a sprinter and I did basketball and swimming and Gaelic football and things like that. So I always thought, I guess, that it would be fun to incorporate that much physical activity and work into a dramatic piece. ~ Saoirse Ronan
Bresnahan School quotes by Saoirse Ronan
I think the gay - the gay/straight alliances in the school are very useful as far as creating understanding among kids and so kids aren't necessarily so stigmatized or demonized for being who they really are. ~ Jeanne Phillips
Bresnahan School quotes by Jeanne Phillips
I was making a lot of 8mm home movies, since I was twelve, making little dramas and comedies with the neighborhood kids. ~ Steven Spielberg
Bresnahan School quotes by Steven Spielberg
You know how there's always the one girl in drama school who can cry at the drop of a hat? She has that emotional well she can tap into in a second? I'm not that girl. It takes a lot to get me to that place. ~ Condola Rashad
Bresnahan School quotes by Condola Rashad
In the twenty-first century, we use a nineteenth-century school model with twentieth-century values. There's clearly something wrong with this picture. ~ Zander Sherman
Bresnahan School quotes by Zander Sherman
In addition, school teaches us that 'A efforts' bring 'A results.' Real life shows us that 'A efforts' only give us a chance at 'A results.' Students can go out into the job market, do all the right things, and still get a real-life 'F' when they aren't selected for a job. ~ Stephen Guise
Bresnahan School quotes by Stephen Guise
What are our schools for if not indoctrination against Communism? ~ Richard M. Nixon
Bresnahan School quotes by Richard M. Nixon
When I decided that I might want to do acting for a living - I don't know where it really came from, since there was no school play or any of that - my mom gave me her blessing. I had to get a scholarship - that was the only way I could have gone to drama school. ~ Gary Oldman
Bresnahan School quotes by Gary Oldman
Pantaenus was one of these and is said to have gone to India. It is reported that among persons there who knew of Christ, he found the Gospel according to Matthew, which had anticipated his own arrival. For Bartholomew, one of the apostles, had preached to them, and left with them the writing of Matthew in the Hebrew language, which they had preserved till that time. After many good deeds, Pantaenus finally became the head of the school at Alexandria, and expounded the treasures of divine doctrine both orally and in writing. ~ Eusebius
Bresnahan School quotes by Eusebius
There was a pause. Finally, dubiously, Jack said, "I'm sorry, but it sounded like you just confessed to being able to talk to bones. Why have we never heard this before?"
"Because I was there when you said you could raise the dead. I saw how everybody reacted, and I enjoy having a social life at this school," said Christopher. ~ Seanan McGuire
Bresnahan School quotes by Seanan McGuire
That's the fun of going to a high school reunion: it's seeing the people who you were close to all those years ago, and re-exploring the relationships of the past. ~ Jon Hurwitz
Bresnahan School quotes by Jon Hurwitz
Education is free. Though the education I refer to is not confined to a stuffy old building that still manages to retain its charm – don't get me wrong, I love my school – but it's out there in the real world. Waiting to be experienced. Waiting for the curious young minds of tomorrow to free themselves from the shackles of ignorance and transcend above everyday like-minded thoughts and uncover the mysteries of tomorrow. ~ Anika De Souza
Bresnahan School quotes by Anika De Souza
I'm a bit of a fraud, really, as I didn't study acting at a drama school. ~ Celia Imrie
Bresnahan School quotes by Celia Imrie
Part of the creative journey for me was not to come up the conventional route. I didn't go through drama school. I chose not to. I came from a very working-class area, a child of Nigerian immigrants. ~ DeObia Oparei
