I hated school so intensely. It interfered with my freedom. I avoided the discipline by an elaborate technique of being absent-minded during classes.

Don't ask me about Beverly Hills High School. Everybody hated it. I hated it. Hated it. Hated it. Hated it.

Julie Kavner

To be honest, the core reason why I became an actor was that I didn't want to go to school. That's where it started. I hated opening my history books and my English books, but then, of course, you grow older. I went to film school in New York, and that's when you really realize that you have to grow up now. It's not child's play anymore.

Ranbir Kapoor

Summer was here again. Summer, summer, summer. I loved and hated summers. Summers had a logic all their own and they always brought something out in me. Summer was supposed to be about freedom and youth and no school and possibilities and adventure and exploration. Summer was a book of hope. That's why I loved and hated summers. Because they made me want to believe.

Benjamin Alire Saenz

I did not like prizes at school. I didn't like tests or exams, or the 11+, or O-levels. Later I hated B.A.s and M.A.s. The reason I hated them is that I don't like being tested, failed or falsely praised by anyone.

Billy Childish

That is why Russia is hated. That is why China is hated. They are forming a tremendous, final defense line protecting humanity from the Western terror.

Andre Vltchek

I never understood why the metal heads in my school hated the punks.

Trevor Dunn

We objected to the morality because it interfered with our sexual freedom.

Aldous Huxley

There would be times when I got so much work that I didn't have time to write. School interfered with writing more than writing with school.

Amity Gaige

I had a Latin master who, for no rational reason whatsoever - I was a very quiet kid at school - just hated me.

Clive Sinclair

Tolkien is eminently filmable, I think. 'The Lord of the Rings' is intensely... landscaped. But 'Discworld' is about dialogue, which is one reason why it might be hard to film.

Terry Pratchett

My feeling about school was that it interfered with my reading.

Linda Ronstadt

There is no one so radical as a man-servant whose freedom of the champagne bin has been interfered with.

Tom Stoppard

There is no reason why any public school district in our state should be on a four-day school week. If anything, we should be extending the school year.

Victor Mitchell

There's another reason why you should love your enemies, and that is because hate distorts the personality of the hater. We usually think of what hate does for the individual hated or the individuals hated or the groups hated. But it is even more tragic, it is even more ruinous and injurious to the individual who hates. [...] For the person who hates, the true becomes false and the false becomes true. That's what hate does.

Martin Luther King, Jr.

I hated being "Mrs." from the first second each time. I didn't know why. All I knew was how uncomfortable it felt. I hated being one half of a couple, without understanding that it wasn't the husband or the man I hated, it was situation, the identity.
