I'm exhausted when I get home, even though the school day was the equivalent of a seven-hour yawn without Galen or Chloe. ~ Anna Banks
Longden School quotes by Anna Banks
I spent the majority of time at school trying to break the rules. I would climb to the top of buildings; I even burned a building down once - not intentionally, just because I was interested in fire. I remember going through the rule book, ticking off the ones I had broken and looking for the ones I hadn't. ~ Simon McBurney
Longden School quotes by Simon McBurney
It is common knowledge that Saudi Arabia is the most extremist of the Muslim States. It finances the infamous Madrassas (schools) that preach a litany of hate and turn out thousands of fanatical Islamic zealots. It indirectly provides the funding and its' citizens provide most of the fighters for Bin Laden's Al-Qaeda organization. It supports, financially and by other means, the Palestinian terrorists and other Muslim anti-Western groups throughout the world. ~ James Byron Bissett
Longden School quotes by James Byron Bissett
I was a really big R.E.M. fan when I was like, in my freshman year of high school. I was a huge R.E.M. fan. ~ Corin Tucker
Longden School quotes by Corin Tucker
she thought of the mix of kids in her class and in Melissa's and she knew that the future could be bright. No one had tried to say she didn't have a right to be in that school, or acted interested in who her ancestors were, but they had been interested in who she was and where she had moved from. They wanted to know what she did and wore and liked. ~ Dixie Dawn Miller Goode
Longden School quotes by Dixie Dawn Miller Goode
I worked for a charity for a while, but ... well, I started acting while I was in high school. I kind of just got lucky enough to live at my parents' house until I was actually making enough money to be somebody's roommate. ~ Shannon Woodward
Longden School quotes by Shannon Woodward
Absolutely invest in retirement. You can always get a loan to get kids through school. I do not know of any loans to get you through retirement. The markets are seriously low from where they were (even though they've gone up 30 percent recently). Now is the time to be dollar cost averaging; the more money you put in, the more shares you buy. Save for your retirement, people. ~ Suze Orman
Longden School quotes by Suze Orman
The teachers liked me. In grade school, they make you copy pictures from books. I think the first one was Robert Louis Stevenson. ~ Andy Warhol
Longden School quotes by Andy Warhol
My family didn't go to church. Once when I slept over at the house of a friend, her parents brought me to Sunday school with her. I was given this little pamphlet of tiny poems about the natural world, about butterflies and sunsets. My 7-year-old self was so astounded by how these few words were creating pictures and feelings in me. ~ Cheryl Strayed
Longden School quotes by Cheryl Strayed
Blacks can get into medical school with a lower grade ... If that's true, a Jew should be able to play basketball with a lower net. ~ Jackie Mason
Longden School quotes by Jackie Mason
Freedom translates into having a supply of clean water, having electricity on tap; being able to live in a decent home and have a good job; to be able to send your children to school and to have accessible healthcare. I mean what's the point of having made this transition if the quality of life ... is not enhanced and improved? If not, the vote is useless. ~ Desmond Tutu
Longden School quotes by Desmond Tutu
I was actually going to law school in 1972. ~ Frank Shorter
Longden School quotes by Frank Shorter
After so many years drifting, not connected to anything, I'm finally tethered. Safe and loved, in the middle.
We start senior year like kings, like nothing can ever tear us apart.
We're wrong. ~ Abigail Haas
Longden School quotes by Abigail Haas
Even in earliest youth my fondest desire was to understand Nature, and thus to come closer to the truth; a truth that I was unable to discover either at school or in church. ~ Viktor Schauberger
Longden School quotes by Viktor Schauberger
My mother was 45 when she had me, so when I was in high school my parents were the same age as my friends' grandparents. ~ Jack White
Longden School quotes by Jack White
I am going to give you a piece of advice ... advice I wish I'd been told in guidance class back in high school, in between the don't-do-acid and don't-drink-and-drive films. I wish our counselors had told us, 'When you grow older a dreadful, horrible sensation will come over you. It's called loneliness, and you think you know what it is now, but you don't. Here is the list of the symptoms, and don't worry - loneliness is the most universal sensation on the planet. Just remember one fact - loneliness will pass. You will survive and you will be a better human for it. ~ Douglas Coupland
Longden School quotes by Douglas Coupland
It really is disgusting when a guy in a ball cap with a high school education is the one asking the tough questions. ~ Michael Moore
Longden School quotes by Michael Moore
I was going to be a High School teacher. I was studying at the University of Alberta in Edmonton, up in Canada. I was also acting in a wonderfully supportive theatre community in Edmonton. There's a lot of support for theatre there. So, I was having a great time, but I didn't consider acting as a serious career initially, because even the most successful actors that I know in Edmonton are not super successful. Acting over there is just not a success-oriented career. ~ Nathan Fillion
Longden School quotes by Nathan Fillion
I was always intrigued when I was growing up, and then in engineering school, with the idea of a perpetual machine. I think of the Wal-Mart culture as that. ~ Mike Duke
Longden School quotes by Mike Duke
I ... [proposed] three distinct grades of education, reaching all classes. 1. Elementary schools for all children generally, rich and poor. 2. Colleges for a middle degree of instruction, calculated for the common purposes of life and such as should be desirable for all who were in easy circumstances. And 3d. an ultimate grade for teaching the sciences generally and in their highest degree ... The expenses of [the elementary] schools should be borne by the inhabitants of the county, every one in proportion to his general tax-rate. This would throw on wealth the education of the poor. ~ Thomas Jefferson
Longden School quotes by Thomas Jefferson
The only problem in the past has been my kids. I'd want to bring them to London with me, but they are at an important stage in high school. ~ Mimi Rogers
Longden School quotes by Mimi Rogers
You know what the problem with high school is? There is way too much of it. ~ Jay McLean
Longden School quotes by Jay McLean
I became an electrician after high school. But I always had this thing in me to write. But it was always a little shameful. To say you were a poet was saying you were kind of crazy, and I carried that around for a long time. I still kind of carry that. And I think it might be true, actually. ~ Nick Flynn
Longden School quotes by Nick Flynn
As a little girl in Arizona, none of the women in my family had a cultural connection with Girl Scouts, but the opportunity resonated with my mother as a platform that would allow me to excel in school. ~ Anna Maria Chavez
Longden School quotes by Anna Maria Chavez
My brothers went to work at 12 and put themselves through school and brought the family out of ruin into food and clothing. ~ Mel Brooks
Longden School quotes by Mel Brooks
I met my wife when we were both 19 or 20, at a music school where she was taking voice and piano lessons and I was doing classes in music theory and composition. ~ Rohinton Mistry
Longden School quotes by Rohinton Mistry
The opening of the first grammar school was the opening of the first trench against monopoly in Church and State. ~ James Russell Lowell
Longden School quotes by James Russell Lowell
a young person wants to learn philosophy these days, he or she would be better advised to become immersed in the domain directly and avoid the field altogether: "I'd tell him to read the great books of philosophy. And I would tell him not to do graduate study at any university. I think all philosophy departments are no good. They are all terrible." By and large, however, jurisdiction over a given domain is officially left in the hands of a field of experts. These may range from grade school teachers to university professors and include anyone who has a right to decide whether a new idea or product is "good" or "bad." It is impossible to understand creativity without understanding how fields operate, how they decide whether something new should or should not be added to the domain. ~ Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
Longden School quotes by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
Dear John Ambrose McClaren,

I know the exact day it all started. Fall, eighth grade. We got caught in the rain when we had to put all the softball bats away after gym. We started to run back to the building, and I couldn't run as fast as you, so you stopped and grabbed my bag too. It was even better than if you'd grabbed my hand. I still remember the way you looked--your T-shirt was stuck to your back, your hair wet like you just came out of the shower. When it started to pour, you whooped and hollered like a little kid. There was this moment--you looked back at me, and your grin was as wide as your face. You said, "Come on, LJ!"

It was right then. That's when I knew, all the way down to my soaking-wet Keds. I love you, John Ambrose McClaren. I really love you. I might have loved you for all of high school. I think you might have loved me back. If only you weren't moving away, John! It's so unfair when people move away. It's like their parents just decide something and no one else gets a say in it. Not that I even deserve a say--I'm not your girlfriend or anything. But you at least deserve a say.

I was really hoping that one day I would get to call you Johnny. Your mom came to get you after school once, and a bunch of us were hanging out on the front steps. And you didn't see her car, so she honked and called out, "Johnny!" I loved the sound of that. Johnny. One day, I bet your girlfriend will call you Johnny. She's really lucky. Maybe you alr ~ Jenny Han
Longden School quotes by Jenny Han
The classic scenario unfolds like this. An ambitious and successful woman heads down a challenging career path with the thought of having children in the back of her mind. At some point, this thought moves to the front of her mind, typically once she finds a partner. The woman considers how hard she is working and reasons that to make room for a child she will have to scale back. A law associate might decide not to shoot for partner because someday she hopes to have a family. A teacher might pass on leading curriculum development for her school. A sales representative might take a smaller territory or not apply for a management role. ~ Sheryl Sandberg
Longden School quotes by Sheryl Sandberg
The problem with intelligent-design theory, is not that it is false but that it is not falsifiable. Not being susceptible to contradicting evidence, it is not a testable hypothesis. Hence it is not a scientific but a creedal tenet - a matter of faith, unsuited to a public school's science curriculum. ~ George Will
Longden School quotes by George Will
I knew she wouldn't remember me," Della said as she and Jordan once again sat at the table. "She had her head so far up her ass in high school, the only thing she could recognize was her own colon. ~ Carla Cassidy
Longden School quotes by Carla Cassidy
Let's be honest, Mr. Ravenwood. You have no place in this town. You are not part of it and clearly, neither is your niece. I don't think you are in any position to make demands."
"Mrs. Lincoln, I appreciate your candor, and I will try to be as frank with you as you have been with me. It would be a grave error for you, for anyone in this town, really, to pursue this matter. You see, I have a great deal of means. I'm a bit of a spendthrift, if you will. If you try to prevent my niece from returning to Stonewall Jackson High School, I will be forced to spend some of that money. Who knows, perhaps I'll bring in a Wal-Mart."
There was another gasp from the bleachers.
"Is that a threat?"
"Not at all. ~ Kami Garcia
Longden School quotes by Kami Garcia
Amount of time an American child spends watching television, annually: 1,500 hours. Amount of time an American child spends in school, annually: 900 hours. ~ Peter Strupp
Longden School quotes by Peter Strupp
My dad is an ob-gyn - he's retired now - and he wanted to come to the States to make a better life, for opportunity. My mom said that, on the plane ride here, I did not want to speak a word of English - I spoke Tagalog. And then, after the first day of school, I didn't want to speak anything but English. ~ Reggie Lee
Longden School quotes by Reggie Lee
You might be a redneck if your mother has been involved in a fist fight at a high school sports event. ~ Jeff Foxworthy
Longden School quotes by Jeff Foxworthy
I also went to art school and learned to play a piano there, but I play by ear. ~ John Mayall
Longden School quotes by John Mayall
Now I've heard everyhing, I thought. Hired to find a person so her boyfriend would go to business school. ~ Sara Paretsky
Longden School quotes by Sara Paretsky
School success is not predicted by a child's fund of facts or a precocious ability to read as much as by emotional and social measures; being self-assured and interested: knowing what kind of behavior is expected and how to rein in the impulse to misbehave; being able to wait, to follow directions, and to turn to teachers for help; and expressing needs while getting along with other children. ~ Daniel Goleman
Longden School quotes by Daniel Goleman
I've always been a writer, and in high school, I was the editor of my school newspaper and I got a writing scholarship. It's always been a passion of mine. ~ Zoe Lister-Jones
Longden School quotes by Zoe Lister-Jones
I have a pretty good family. But ever since I was little, I just felt like I wanted to be on my own. It was the same thing about school. ~ Harmony Korine
Longden School quotes by Harmony Korine
NVC can be effectively applied at all levels of communication and in diverse situations: intimate relationships, families, schools, organizations and institutions, therapy and counseling, diplomatic and business negotiations, disputes and conflicts of any nature. ~ Marshall B. Rosenberg
Longden School quotes by Marshall B. Rosenberg
There are dangers everywhere, I wanted to explain to her. On the school bus, in the cafeteria, at Start, inside me. No parent - no one at all - can step in and vanquish every one of them. ~ Leila Sales
Longden School quotes by Leila Sales
If I cannot give my children a perfect mother I can at least give them more of the one they've got
and make that one more loving. I will be available. I will take time to listen, time to play, time to be home when they arrive from school, time to counsel and encouerage. ~ Ruth Bell Graham
Longden School quotes by Ruth Bell Graham
My parents only played Isley Brothers, Marvin Gaye. That's when New Kids came out, and we wanted to jam that. My mom was like, "Put that thing off and put my damn record on". So from old school to '90s to recent, it's just always been there. ~ Solange Knowles
Longden School quotes by Solange Knowles
Drawing used to be a civilized thing to do, like reading and writing. It was taught in elementary schools. It was democratic. It was a boon to happiness. ~ Michael Kimmelman
Longden School quotes by Michael Kimmelman
We have a herd of cows.
A school of fish.
A pride of lions.
A gaggle of geese.
But, what do we call a group of raindrops? ~ Anthony T. Hincks
Longden School quotes by Anthony T. Hincks
Peeta, you said at the interview you'd had a crush on me forever. When did forever start?

Oh, let's see. I guess the first day of school. We were five. You had on a red plaid dress and your hair...it was in two braids instead of one. My father pointed you out when we were waiting to line up."

Your father? Why?"

He said, 'See that little girl? I wanted to marry her mother, but she ran off with a coal miner.'"

What? You're making that up!"

No, true story. And I said, 'A coal miner? Why did she want a coal miner if she could've had you?' And he said, 'Because when he sings...even the birds stop to listen. ~ Suzanne Collins
Longden School quotes by Suzanne Collins
From Summer's End
What we have is enough. It's more than we consciously realized. ~ Sally Henson
