I did attend Catholic schools up to the ninth grade, and I admire much in the Catholic Church. ~ Matthew Scully
Catholic Schools quotes by Matthew Scully
We were a religious, practicing, Catholic family - Mass together on Sunday, Catholic schools, and parents who practiced everything they preached. A great gift was their total absence of any derogatory talk about people of any race or culture and we were on a street of many faiths, though no other races at that early time. ~ Trina Paulus
Catholic Schools quotes by Trina Paulus
But St. Mary's was still a prison. Those boys who entered with reasonably secure psyches might receive some valuable training and survive well enough. But for the others -- the neglected, sick, half-wild incorrigibles who had been thrown in as a last resort -- it represented nothing less than a death camp of the spirit. If you could meet them halfway, the brothers probably wouldn't hurt you, and conceivably might help. But if you were unable to meet them halfway -- if you didn't even know where halfway was or how to get there -- only a miracle could allow you to emerge a whole person. ~ Ken Sobol
Catholic Schools quotes by Ken Sobol
Catholic schools carry out a great mission, to serve God by building knowledge and character ... By teaching the word of God, you prepare your students to follow a path of virtue. ~ George W. Bush
Catholic Schools quotes by George W. Bush
Let us thank all those who teach in Catholic schools. Educating is an act of love; it is like giving life. ~ Pope Francis
Catholic Schools quotes by Pope Francis
Catholic schools prepare every student to meet the challenges of their future by developing their mind, yes, but also their body and their soul and spirit. ~ David Vitter
Catholic Schools quotes by David Vitter
I attended Catholic schools at a time when Latin was still a living ritual language. ~ Dana Gioia
Catholic Schools quotes by Dana Gioia
I am and have always been a strong proponent of public education. But by the virtue of its very nature - publicly funded schools cannot offer the type of spiritual education that Catholic schools have long provided. ~ Mark Foley
Catholic Schools quotes by Mark Foley
You can always tell the Catholic schools by the length of the cheerleaders' skirts. ~ Al McGuire
Catholic Schools quotes by Al McGuire
Explaining the Jews in a Catholic school when you're Irish is like having to explain your country's foreign policy while on a vacation in France. You don't know what you're talking about and no matter what you say, they're not going to like it anyway. ~ John William Tuohy
Catholic Schools quotes by John William Tuohy
How many Catholic schools do you think teach the students to question the authority of the Pope? Do you believe Christian schools teach students to question or challenge the authority of Jesus Christ? Do military schools teach the cadets to challenge the authority. ~ Neal Boortz
Catholic Schools quotes by Neal Boortz
Our Catholic schools exist to help young people attain holiness in their lives, that is, to become saints. ~ Salvatore J. Cordileone
Catholic Schools quotes by Salvatore J. Cordileone
That text-books be permitted in Catholic schools such as will not offend the religious views of the minority, and which from an educational standpoint shall be satisfactory to the advisory board. ~ Charles Tupper
Catholic Schools quotes by Charles Tupper
I attended private Catholic schools in Paris and Los Angeles through high school. ~ Natalie Massenet
Catholic Schools quotes by Natalie Massenet
The apostles and their successors are God's vicars in governing the Church which is built on faith and the sacraments of faith. Wherefore, just as they may not institute another Church, so neither may they deliver another faith, nor institute other sacraments. ~ Thomas Aquinas
Catholic Schools quotes by Thomas Aquinas
America is the first great experiment in Protestant social formation. Protestantism in Europe always assumed and depended on the cultural habits that had been created by Catholic Christianity. ~ Stanley Hauerwas
Catholic Schools quotes by Stanley Hauerwas
Every school should have well-rehearsed emergency response protocols covering a variety of possible scenarios, from fire to armed intruders. Schools should have good lines of communications with local emergency response officials and practice those relationships in drills and special exercises. ~ Irwin Redlener
Catholic Schools quotes by Irwin Redlener
When creativity is the goal, schools must have their own platforms to network and innovate. ~ Andy Hargreaves
Catholic Schools quotes by Andy Hargreaves
I would say colonialism is a wonderful thing. It spread civilization to Africa. Before it they had no written language, no wheel as we know it, no schools, no hospitals, not even normal clothing. ~ Ian Smith
Catholic Schools quotes by Ian Smith
Public libraries are our great teachers and storytellers, and are a vital adjunct to our schools. In this day of standardized and homogenized education, a library offers individual and personalized learning opportunities second to none. ~ Julie Andrews
Catholic Schools quotes by Julie Andrews
The books he and his supporters wanted out of the schools, one of mine among them, were not pornographic, although he would have liked our audience to think so. (There is the word "motherfucker" one time in my Slaughterhouse-Five, as in "Get out of the road, you dumb motherfucker." Ever since that word was published, way back in 1969, children have been attempting to have intercourse with their mothers. When it will stop no one knows.) ~ Kurt Vonnegut
Catholic Schools quotes by Kurt Vonnegut
If popular mythology is to be believed, the discoverer of New Zealand was a Polynesian voyager named Kupe. Oddly, this myth was Pakeha in origin rather than Maori. Maori came to embrace it solely as a result of its widespread publication and dissemination in New Zealand primary schools between the 1910s and the 1970s. ~ Michael King
Catholic Schools quotes by Michael King
We've kind of grown up in a post-Star Wars era, and what Star Wars did to cinema, in terms of an explosion of that kind of blockbuster culture. It's thrown up a generation of geeks. With the evolution of computer games and the Internet, that's all impacted on us as a generation, and affected the creative element of that generation enormously. So whereas the different schools of filmmaking. ~ Simon Pegg
Catholic Schools quotes by Simon Pegg
Jessica

I first met the man I married at a hair salon. I was going out the door; Jep was going in--for a haircut. Seriously. Nowadays, most of the Robertson men don't get haircuts, but Jep did back then. When our paths crossed that day, we said nothing more than "hi" to each other, just one word.
Jep and I both grew up in West Monroe, Louisiana, and he is two years older than I am. We went to different high schools, but because we lived in a close community, we had heard about each other. He knew who I was, and I knew who he was--and I thought he had a cool name. I had heard good things about him, including, "He's a dream." When our paths crossed at the hair salon and we simply said hello, I had no way of knowing the hairdresser would tell Jep all about me as she cut his hair that day. Both of us had gone to her for years, so she knew us pretty well, and she said really nice things about me to Jep. In fact, she takes credit for getting us together! After we were married I found out that when he left the hair salon that day, he went home and told his best friend, "I just met the girl I'm going to marry."
"What's her name?" his friend asked.
"Jessica," Jep responded. He only knew this because the hairdresser had told him.
"Jessica who?" his friend asked. "What's her last name?"
"I don't know," Jep admitted.
I love the fact that Jep knew he would marry me after only seeing me once. Maybe he did not know my last name, but the next time he ~ Jessica Robertson
Catholic Schools quotes by Jessica Robertson
I went to parochial grammar school, and I give thanks to the Catholic training because of course, they brought me to the heart of Jesus. ~ Tony Orlando
Catholic Schools quotes by Tony Orlando
My identity has always been confused. Born in Edinburgh of a Scottish/Russian/Jewish mother and an English/Irish/Catholic father, there is no form of guilt to which I was not subjected in my childhood. Members of my immediate family live all over the world - a diaspora of cousins, aunts, uncles and more in a dizzying mix. ~ Sara Sheridan
Catholic Schools quotes by Sara Sheridan
Every time the Catholic Church takes one step forward, it seems to take one giant step back. ~ Janine Di Giovanni
Catholic Schools quotes by Janine Di Giovanni
The ideal ratio is one computer to every five students; we are nowhere close to that percentage in a lot of schools in America. ~ Spencer Abraham
Catholic Schools quotes by Spencer Abraham
There is a lot going on in high schools, and I think what we portray is fairly accurate. ~ Chi McBride
Catholic Schools quotes by Chi McBride
I'm a Communist by day and a Catholic as soon as it gets dark. ~ Brendan Behan
Catholic Schools quotes by Brendan Behan
Having the Mass in one's native language is no guarantee that a person will understand the mystery of the Mass. On the contrary, if the vesture of the ceremony is too familiar, the participants too easily thinks he has mastered what it's all about. The familiar becomes the routine, the routine becomes ignored. Our own language is a comfort zone that insulates us form the shock of the Gospel, the scandal of the Cross, the lure of the unknown. I would rather have a huge dose of foreignness, of music that is not current, words that are strange, language that is archaic, hieratic gestures that are grandly incongruous to a democratic society. A person thrown into this situation knows at least that he is dealing with something utterly different and possibly far deeper than his day-to-day occupations. ~ Peter Kwasniewski
Catholic Schools quotes by Peter Kwasniewski
The language of the face is not taught by the schools; it is intuitive, and to the observant is always legible. ~ Julia Ward Howe
Catholic Schools quotes by Julia Ward Howe
I can to see the streets and the schools as arms of the same beast. One enjoyed the official power of the state while the other enjoyed its implicit sanction. But fear and violence were the weaponry of both. Fail in the streets and the crews would catch you slipping and take your body. Fail in the schools and you would be suspended and sent back to those same streets, where they would take your body. And I began to see these two arms in relation - those who failed in the schools justified their destruction in the streets. The society could say, "He should have stayed in school," and then wash its hands of him ~ Ta-Nehisi Coates
Catholic Schools quotes by Ta-Nehisi Coates
The aeroplane should open a fruitful occupation for women. I see no reason they cannot realize handsome incomes by carrying passengers between adjacent towns, from parcel delivery, taking photographs or conducting schools of flying. ~ Harriet Quimby
Catholic Schools quotes by Harriet Quimby
You have to ask what the end game is here - when 25 percent of Palo Alto homes are sold to overseas buyers as investments while the mainland Chinese property market tanks, when Palo Alto schools are known for their suicide rates as much as their academics, when the city that gave birth to the technology industry now can't even house startups because of its sky-high commercial rents, when Latino and black communities are being wiped from the Western side of the San Francisco Bay Area and Oakland out into the exurbs of the East only to be called back by smartphone to deliver laundry or drive people around. ~ Anonymous
Catholic Schools quotes by Anonymous
I know married Catholics in a second union who go to church, who go to church once or twice a year and say I want communion, as if joining in Communion were an award. It's a work towards integration, all doors are open, but we cannot say, 'from here on they can have communion.' ~ Pope Francis
Catholic Schools quotes by Pope Francis
We decided that our first job was to help the schools serving the children from the very lowest income groups. Those families constitute the number one burden, the number one burden in this Nation on the school systems. ~ Lyndon B. Johnson
Catholic Schools quotes by Lyndon B. Johnson
I must keep alive in myself the desire for my true country, which I shall not find till after death. ~ C.S. Lewis
Catholic Schools quotes by C.S. Lewis
My mother was an unbeliever - and still is. My father was a nominal Catholic. We would go in to church at the last minute before the gospel reading, take Communion, and walk right out again. ~ Frederica Mathewes-Green
Catholic Schools quotes by Frederica Mathewes-Green
The fact is, parents and schools and cultures can and do shape people. The most important influence in my life, outside of my family, was my high school journalism teacher, Hattie M. Steinberg. She pounded the fundamentals of journalism into her students
not simply how to write a lead or accurately transcribe a quote but, more important, how to comport yourself in a professional way. She was nearing sixty at the time I had her as my teacher and high school newspaper adviser in the late 1960s. She was the polar opposite of "cool," but we hung around her classroom like it was the malt shop and she was Wolfman Jack. None of us could have articulated it then, but it was because we enjoyed being harangued by her, disciplined by her, and taught by her. She was a woman of clarity and principles in an age of uncertainty. I sit up straight just thinking about her! ~ Thomas L. Friedman
Catholic Schools quotes by Thomas L. Friedman
I have visited schools that have music programs and those that don't. I see the way the kids act with each other. ~ Joshua Bell
Catholic Schools quotes by Joshua Bell
I'm a firm believer in God himself, but that's as far as I can go. I'm not any denomination. I'm not Catholic or Presbyterian or Baptist or Methodist or Jewish or Muslim. I'm none of those things. And I'm sure that's just fine with God. ~ Ray Charles
Catholic Schools quotes by Ray Charles
Every film is a challenge. I always say that making a movie is like film school - you're always learning. But unlike most schools, you never get done with it. You never learn everything. ~ Peter Jackson
Catholic Schools quotes by Peter Jackson
It just never occurred to me that a school's policy and student culture could make a big difference in the way I would experience my body while on campus. I didn't think there was anything to choose about a sexual culture. I'd only ever known the one I grew up in. But it did matter, and in ways I wouldn't have even predicted. ~ Jaclyn Friedman
Catholic Schools quotes by Jaclyn Friedman
For too long, we financed our schools in a way that has systematically left large segments of our population behind. ~ Ruben Hinojosa
Catholic Schools quotes by Ruben Hinojosa
I intend to talk about race during this election in the South because the Republicans have been talking about it since 1968 in order to divide us. And I'm going to bring us together. Because you know what? You know what? White folks in the South who drive pickup trucks with Confederate flag decals in the back ought to be voting with us and not them, because their kids don't have health insurance either and their kids need better schools too. ~ Howard Dean
Catholic Schools quotes by Howard Dean
I was raised Catholic. Guilt is my resting state. ~ Paul Doiron
Catholic Schools quotes by Paul Doiron
When the Catholic Church insists that it is more sinful to use condoms in the midst of a sexually transmitted epidemic that it is for the same Church to withhold approbation of the use of condoms, it is less suprising that the sexual abuse of minors was handled unethically. ~ Mary Gail Frawley-O'Dea
Catholic Schools quotes by Mary Gail Frawley-O'Dea
It is tragic what we do in the poorest neighborhoods, entrapping children in child laws which are truly stupid ... These schools should get rid of unionized janitors, have one master janitor, pay local students to take care of the school. ~ Newt Gingrich
Catholic Schools quotes by Newt Gingrich
As soon as we abandon our own reason, and are content to rely upon authority, there is no end to our trouble ... No Catholic, for instance, takes seriously the text which says that a Bishop should be the husband of one wife. ~ Bertrand Russell
Catholic Schools quotes by Bertrand Russell
He said 'My kingdom is not of this world.' So did Bowie. It tapped into the whole Catholic idea of creating your own saints, finding icons of divinity in the mundane. As a religion, Bowieism didn't seem so different from Catholicism - the hemlines were just a little higher. ~ Rob Sheffield
Catholic Schools quotes by Rob Sheffield
I think for a long time I wasn't really out to myself growing up in Omaha, Neb., to a Catholic conservative family. It took me a while to come out to myself, and not long after that, I came out to them. I think that it really couldn't have been a better experience. They were all immediately supportive. ~ Laura Ricketts
Catholic Schools quotes by Laura Ricketts
The implications of such marginalization are profound. The insights about sexist and racist biases... are important because information organizations, from libraries to schools and universities to governmental agencies, are increasingly reliant on being displaced by a variety of web-based "tools" as if there are no political, social, or economic consequences of doing so. ~ Safiya Umoja Noble
Catholic Schools quotes by Safiya Umoja Noble
Let the Spirit be lacking, and there may be wisdom of words, but not the wisdom of God; the powers of oratory, but not the power of God; the demonstration of argument and the logic of the schools, but not the demonstration of the Holy Spirit, the all-convincing logic of His lightning flash, such as convinced Saul before the Damascus gate. When the Spirit was outpoured the disciples were all filled with power from on high, the most unlettered tongue could silence gainsayers, and with its new fire burn its way through obstacles as flames fanned by mighty winds sweep through forests. ~ Arthur Tappan Pierson
Catholic Schools quotes by Arthur Tappan Pierson
Most talk of a catholic spirit but it is only till they have been brought into the pale of their own church. This is downright sectarianism, not Catholicism. How can I act consistently, unless I receive and love all the children of God, whom I esteem to be such, of whatever denomination they may be? ~ George Whitefield
Catholic Schools quotes by George Whitefield
I've worked throughout California as a poet: in colleges, universities, worker camps, migrant education offices, continuation high schools, juvenile halls, prisons, and gifted classrooms. ~ Juan Felipe Herrera
Catholic Schools quotes by Juan Felipe Herrera
By April 1999, the plain was nearly filled, all the way to the foothills. But the fiercely independent residents refused to incorporate. A new town would only impose new rules and new taxes. The 100,000 new arrivals filled one continuous suburb with no town center: no main street, no town hall, town library, or town name. No one was sure what to call it. Littleton is a quiet suburb south of Denver where the massacre did not actually occur. Although the name would grow synonymous with the tragedy, Columbine lies several miles west, across the South Platte River, in a different county with separate schools and law enforcement. The postal system slapped "Littleton" onto a vast tract of seven hundred square miles, stretching way up into the foothills. ~ Dave Cullen
Catholic Schools quotes by Dave Cullen
Sharia is the most oppressive system on earth. It encourages people to lie, if it's for the benefits of Islam. It doesn't allow Muslims to leave Islam, and there's a death penalty in all the schools of Sharia against those that leave Islam. Sharia defines what jihad is. ~ Mark Durie
Catholic Schools quotes by Mark Durie
In fine, a life of good or evil, the hope of Heaven or the despair of Hell, Faustus stands as a reminder that the choice between these two absolutes also falls to us. ~ E.A. Bucchianeri
