School Life Quotes (page 7)

I told myself, 'All I want is a normal life'. But was that true? I wasn't so sure.

I was even slightly thrilled that my mother was such a mess. Had I become addicted to crisis? I traced my finger along the windowsill. 'Want something normal, want something normal, want something normal', I told myself. Augusten Burroughs

My school days were the happiest days of my life; which should give you some indication of the misery I've endured over the past twenty-five years. Paul Merton
I've been playing music all my life, from being a choir soloist at Symphony Hall as a youngster to playing in bands through high school and college at Kent State. Went in the service at 17, out before I was 21. Arthur Godfrey

The stage was our school, our home, our life. Lillian Gish
I never went to business school. I was just bumbling through a lot of my life. I was like the guy behind the curtain in The Wizard of Oz. David Geffen
Robert Frost quote: "The chief reason for going to school is to get the impression..."

Say there's a white kid who lives in a nice home, goes to an all-white school, and is pretty much having everything handed to him on a platter - for him to pick up a rap tape is incredible to me, because what that's saying is that he's living a fantasy life of rebellion. Kim Mathers
