School Quotes

It’s as if once you hit high school, you’re programmed, like a robot, to be an asshole to your parents Picture Quote #1

I’m having a seriously hard time getting used to the fact that summer is over and I have to get out of bed every morning to go to school Picture Quote #1

There is something in me maybe someday to be written; now it is folded, and folded, and folded, like a note in school Picture Quote #1

She is a loner, too bright for the slutty girls and too savage for the bright girls, haunting the edges and corners of the school like a sullen disillusioned ghost Picture Quote #1

... pretty much everyone hates high school. It’s a measure of your humanity, I suspect. If you enjoyed high school, you were probably a psychopath or a cheerleader. Or possibly both. Those things aren’t mutually exclusive, you know. I’ve tried to block out the memory of my high school years, but no matter how hard you try, it’s always with you, like an unwanted hitchhiker. Or herpes. I assume Picture Quote #1

I never went to a modeling school, and I don’t suggest to anybody that they go to a modeling school Picture Quote #1

Waking your kids up for school the first day after a break is almost as much fun as birthing them was Picture Quote #1

Nothing enrages me more than when people criticize my criticism of school by telling me that schools are not just places to learn maths and spelling, they are places where children learn a vaguely defined thing called socialization... I think schools generally do an effective and terribly damaging job of teaching children to be infantile, dependent, intellectually dishonest, passive and disrespectful to their own developmental capacities Picture Quote #1

School is about learning to wait your turn, however long it takes to come, if ever. And how to submit with a show of enthusiasm to the judgment of strangers, even if they are wrong, even if your enthusiasm is phony Picture Quote #1

I was never interested in singing in the church or school. I was more interested in becoming a musician Picture Quote #1

We imagine a school in which students and teachers excitedly and joyfully stretch themselves to their limits in pursuit of projects built on their vision... not one that succeeds in making apathetic students satisfying minimal standards Picture Quote #1

Some people can’t leave school because they’re carrying it around like a snail and his shell. They live there, still. School became an ingrown, hard part of them. They still define themselves by their school failures and successes Picture Quote #1

When men and women fail to form stable marriages, the result is a vast expansion of government attempts to cope with the terrible social needs that result. There is scarcely a dollar that the state and federal government spends on social programs that is not driven, in large part, by family fragmentation: crime, poverty, drug abuse, teen pregnancy, school failure, mental and physical health problems Picture Quote #1

Let us do our duty in our shop or our kitchen, in the market, the street, the office, the school, the home, just as faithfully as if we stood in the front rank of some great battle, and knew that victory for mankind depended on our bravery, strength, and skill. When we do that, the humblest of us will be serving in that great army which achieves the welfare of the world Picture Quote #1

There is no system in the world or any school in the country that is better than its teachers. Teachers are the lifeblood of the success of schools Picture Quote #1

Who besides a degraded rabble would voluntarily present itself to be graded and classified like meat? No wonder school is compulsory Picture Quote #1

Basketball was not my main sport in grade school, or even the first year of high school Picture Quote #1

I haven’t personally experienced bullying, but when I was in high school, I had a best friend who became a bully. I took a stand and took it upon myself to separate from her. I couldn’t be associated with her because it wasn’t the type of person I wanted to be Picture Quote #1

Our school systems teach our children that they are nothing but glorified apes who have evolutionized out of some primordial soup of mud, by teaching evolution as fact Picture Quote #1

Lean water and health care and school and food and tin roofs and cement floor, all of these things should constitute a set of basics that people must have as birthrights Picture Quote #1

I play for the poor man. I try to give a thrill to the lunch bucket fan. I know their plight. I worked in a factory in high school. The poor folk who lay out the hard bread to see a game. That’s where my heart lies. The rich don’t need heroes Picture Quote #1

None of you has ever failed. School may have failed you. Goodbye to failure, children. Welcome to success Picture Quote #1

They have to convert our agenda into something aggressive. Two guys wanting to be happy together are invading their marriages. Helping a kid who’s getting beaten up in school is promoting homosexuality. If you gave me a million dollars, I wouldn’t know how to promote homosexuality Picture Quote #1

To my mind by far the greatest danger in scholarship... is not that the individual may fail to master the thought of a school but that a school may succeed in mastering the thought of the individual Picture Quote #1

Probably, the nature of homophobia will never be widely interrogated, while we will continue to be excluded from school curricula, subjected to vicious media distortions, or entirely ignored, denied basic civil rights while our demands are ridiculed and derided. But in the midst of all this only one thing has changed for certain. We have changed. We will never go back into the closet Picture Quote #1

Of all the joyous motives of school life, the love of knowledge is the only abiding one; the only one which determines the scale, so to speak, upon which the person will hereafter live Picture Quote #1

The dropout crisis is just the tip of an iceberg. What it doesn’t count are all the kids who are in school but being disengaged from it, who don’t enjoy it, who don’t get any real benefit from it Picture Quote #1

We know that many boys and girls leave school because of poverty, because they have to work. However, there are an important number of children who abandon their studies because of the abuses they’re subject to by teachers and their own parents Picture Quote #1

In order that the relations between science and the age may be what they ought to be, the world at large must be made to feel that science is, in the fullest sense, a ministry of good to all, not the private possession and luxury of a few, that it is the best expression of human intelligence and not the abracadabra of a school, that it is a guiding light and not a dazzling fog Picture Quote #1

If there is one thing educators can agree on, it’s this: children do better in school when their parents get involved in their learning Picture Quote #1
