University Quotes

I went to the University of Toronto to study the history and theory of film, in the back of my mind thinking I’d go to NYU film school and see if I could make a career of it Picture Quote #1

When I went to college at the University of Nevada back in Las Vegas, I got tricked into singing in choir. The first thing we did was the Mozart ‘Requiem.’ That was the piece that changed my life overnight Picture Quote #1

If I were to go back to the Philippines, I would probably end up teaching creative writing at a university. I wouldn’t be able to write, for I would become too jaded to be able to view the existing situation objectively Picture Quote #1

If I did want to go back to school, I’d want to go to Loyola Marymount University over in, I believe, Morina, or Pepperdine. Those are just beautiful campuses. I know that’s probably not the right reason to go school. The campuses are just stunning Picture Quote #1

In 1986, I was asked by the then-Dean of Science at the University of British Columbia, Dr. R.C. Miller, Jr., to establish a new interdisciplinary institute, the Biotechnology Laboratory.

I made a film called ‘Bad Timing’ that I thought everybody would respond to. It was about obsessive love and physical obsession. I thought this must touch everyone, from university dons down Picture Quote #1

I liked Edinburgh as a university in a way that I’d never enjoyed King’s College London. I realised after I came to Edinburgh that perhaps it was a mistake to have gone to a college which was bang in the centre of a vast city. It had a bad effect on the social life of the students because a lot of them were commuting from outer London Picture Quote #1

I am a basketball junkie, and as a product of the great basketball state of Kansas, I have watched many a ball game between the University of Kansas Jayhawks and the Tar Heels Picture Quote #1

I had started law school at Florida State University as a part-timer. I would go two quarters, and they allowed me to drop out to play baseball, and then I’d get readmitted in September. I was convinced I was going to be a lawyer and was using my baseball salary to pay my way through school Picture Quote #1

I plan to coach at University of Louisville for as long as I can maintain the passion I have for the game of basketball. I don’t want to coach anywhere else. I don’t believe in anything else as much as I believe in this university and this state. I want to coach as long as they will have me Picture Quote #1

When Steny Hoyer brings up a resolution to support and recognize the University of Maryland men’s basketball team - I’m not making this up - before we even had March madness, then you just know that it’s just political favoritism Picture Quote #1

I was the good girl who never needed disciplining, who made straight A’s. I applied and was accepted to Stanford University Picture Quote #1

Forty-five hundred outstanding lawsuits now for Donald Trump, including Trump University in court Picture Quote #1

If diversity is what is a central value in every selective university in the United States, then it ought to be seen as a compelling interest by the Supreme Court Picture Quote #1

Too many people think that economics is this subject that should wait until the university level. But it can’t wait that long Picture Quote #1

I became interested in photography during my first visit to the United States. I was a student at a university in Holland. I was overwhelmed by the beauty of the American West. That was when I learned about the tradition of nature in American photography Picture Quote #1

When I was at school, most people were planning on going to university and becoming doctors or lawyers. I wanted to be a singer, and I was laughed at. It was tough, but I never let anything stop me Picture Quote #1

People don’t really know themselves until they’re 30. Like most people nowadays, I went to university, got a degree and wandered for a bit. I trained to be a chartered accountant, which I didn’t much enjoy, and it was only slowly that the idea of becoming a creative writer gelled Picture Quote #1

My father was on the faculty in the Chemistry Department of Harvard University; my mother had one year of graduate work in physics before her marriage Picture Quote #1

I never had a single female professor throughout my whole education, from the beginning of university to the end. Even all the books were about men; I never really liked reading books about the history of science, and I never really understood why Picture Quote #1

My mom came from such humble beginnings and especially my dad as well. He didn’t go to university Picture Quote #1

Full disclosure: I went to university as an eager young feminist for many reasons - to get away from my parents, to soak up literature and knowledge, to cease being a child, to expand my mind and my world Picture Quote #1

My dad is from Nottingham - although I’ve only been there twice in my life, with one being when my friend was at university there. I’ve always found it a friendly place and has a good night life Picture Quote #1

When I was 13 I told my dad I’d rather kill myself than do an ordinary job. He vaguely muttered something about how I’d need to earn a living somehow, but he’s been totally behind me, forking out money he didn’t really have to send me to university. Every other comedian I’ve met had to fight their parents to be allowed to do this but mine have been brilliant Picture Quote #1

I remembered that throughout my growing up and education and pursuing my dreams and desires, going into acting, and, of course, getting through Yale University and on and on and on, that being average, being mediocre was not an option that you should be proud of Picture Quote #1

The University of Westminster is well known for being a hotbed of extremist activity Picture Quote #1

I regrettably wasted time at university by being overwhelmed and intimidated by the talent of other composers. I felt stuck and didn’t know what I was doing there. I enjoyed my experience, but I didn’t grab it in the way I would now Picture Quote #1

It was only after university that I said to myself that I had to take the risk and have a serious go at acting. It’s such a bizarre profession, because you have to be totally tough to deal with all those times when you’re being turned down, and then really soft in order to access your character’s emotions Picture Quote #1

I spent two years working on building sites, working on the railways as a guard and in a racing stable, exercising racehorses. I learnt to build relationships. The experience of not being stuck in some middle-class bubble taught me things that being at university hadn’t Picture Quote #1
