I was really grateful for the photography classes, the art classes, and the video classes. They would let me skip all my other classes and stay and work on my projects.

Kali Uchis

I explored the arts in general; I took painting classes and sketching classes and acting classes and all sorts of different things.

Margaret Qualley

There are only two classes in good society in England: the equestrian classes and the neurotic classes.

George Bernard Shaw

If you don't take enough math classes or science classes or writing intensive classes, you're not going to be prepared to compete in college or the workplace -- no matter what your diploma says.

Rod Blagojevich

If the educated and influential classes in a community either practice or connive at the systematic violation of laws that seem to them to cross their convenience, what can they expect when the lesson that convenience or a supposed class interest is a sufficient cause for lawlessness has been well learned by the ignorant classes?

Benjamin Harrison

I went to the Chicago Art Institute, which was the best painting school in the area at that time. And I took painting classes - basic elementary painting classes and drawing classes of all sorts.

Warren MacKenzie

I was in acting classes from the age of 9, dance classes, music classes - my mom put a lot of energy and attention into me, so no matter what happened in my life, I always had this basis of discipline. So I really worked hard for everything I had from a very early age.

Milla Jovovich

I've noticed a fascinating phenomenon in my twenty-five years of teaching - that schools and schooling are increasingly irrelevant to the great enterprises of the planet.

The truth is that schools don't really teach anything except how to obey orders.

John Taylor Gatto

I had no interest in history classes. In fact, I used to sleep in history classes, I used to bunk classes. But that is how students are supposed to be, no? I developed an interest in history much later. I have made a few films based on historical facts.

I think that when I was child, acting was mostly just a hobby for me. It was something that my parents encouraged me to think of the way that my brothers thought of their cross-country classes, or my little sister to dance classes and art classes, and it was something like that for me.

Mara Wilson

I don't favour ethics classes being an alternative to special religious education classes.

Barry O'Farrell

The trouble with the lower classes is that they lack the sense of tragedy given to them by the upper classes.

Capitalism has always been a failure for the lower classes. It is now beginning to fail for the middle classes.

Howard Zinn

There's this certain caliber of dancing I was striving for when I was younger, and it's very hard for me to go back and just do it for fun. But I take all other kinds of classes: I take jazz classes, modern classes, and I love doing that instead of going to the gym. The gym is not very much fun.
