This character feels so much like my brother. He has two children. He has a wife. He works with me. He chooses to stay in New Hampshire because he wants his kids to grow up in the school they started with. He doesn’t want them to lose friends. He is his family’s hero.
Adam SandlerDogs never bite me – just humans.
Marilyn MonroeWhat’s amazing is, if young people understood how doing well in school makes the rest of their life so much interesting, they would be more motivated. It’s so far away in time that they can’t appreciate what it means for their whole life.
Bill GatesI would have a workshop attached to every school, and one hour a day given up to the teaching of simple decorative arts. It would be a golden hour to the children.

Muhammad AliCrowded classrooms and half-day sessions are a tragic waste of our greatest national resource – the minds of our children.

Karl LagerfeldI never enjoyed school and I was never that good at school so leaving wasn’t the biggest thing, but the social aspect of school, leaving your friends, you lose contact with them a bit and now I have more friends at the race track than the friends I keep in touch with at school.
Lando NorrisI love pets, especially dogs.
Jurgen KloppWhen I was at school, I used to stay on a balcony singing and people would stand around listening.

Karl LagerfeldThe goal of education is the advancement of knowledge and the dissemination of truth.

Theodore RooseveltWriters are lampposts and critics are dogs. Ask lampposts what they think about dogs. Does the dog hurt the lamppost?
Paulo CoelhoHaving a bunch of cats around is good. If you’re feeling bad, you just look at the cats, you’ll feel better because they know that everything is just as it is. There’s nothing to get excited about. They just know. They’re saviours.
Charles BukowskiI ain’t here to argue about his facial features. Or here to convert atheists into believers. I’m just trying to say the way school need teachers the way Kathie Lee needed Regis that’s the way yall need Jesus.
Kanye WestIt was still quiet in the house, and not a sound was heard from outside, either. Were it not for this silence, my reverie would probably have been disrupted by reminders of daily duties, of getting up and going to school.
Hermann HesseIn all my days of schooling, from preschool all the way up to 12th grade, there was not one white person in my class. Literally zero.

Haruki MurakamiI left school to concentrate on racing. It was a family decision between my mum, dad and myself.
Lando NorrisThe more cats you have, the longer you live. If you have a hundred cats, you’ll live 10 times longer than if you have 10. Someday this will be discovered, and people will have a thousand cats and live forever. It’s truly ridiculous.
Charles BukowskiIf I want to do well in racing I need to be more focused so I stopped going to school. If I wasn’t a very good driver it would not be a wise decision, but it gives me an advantage over my competitors.
Lando NorrisI think who you are in school really sticks with you. I don’t ever feel like the cool kid at the party, ever. It’s like, ‚Smile and be nice to everybody, because you were not invited to be here.‘
Taylor SwiftI’ve been thinking of humorous things since I was… I can’t remember when. All the way through elementary school, all the way through junior high, all the way through high school, through college and after college, I was thinking of the same kinds of things that I say in front of an audience now.
Steven WrightOn one of my last days at school, the headmaster said I would either end up in prison or become a millionaire. That was quite a startling prediction, but in some respects, he was right on both counts!

Anthony BourdainThey who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night.
Edgar Allan PoeI go to school the youth to learn the future.
Robert FrostI was in enough to get along with people. I was never socially inarticulate. Not a loner. And that saved my life, saved my sanity. That and the writing. But to this day I distrust anybody who thought school was a good time. Anybody.

Clint EastwoodIn this knowledge-worker age, it’s now increasingly tied to doing well in school so you can get into better grad schools so you can get better jobs – so the pressure to do well is really high.
Stephen CoveyToo often we act – ask our schools to be truant officers, our teachers to be truant officers, because we’re giving them children who have, you know, they’re not ready to learn. And if they’re not ready to learn by the third grade, they know they’re behind.
Colin PowellSome of the kids in school used to call my father a fake or a phony. That kind of thing brought on a few fights.
