Too much horsing around with unrealistic stances and classic forms and rituals is just too artificial and mechanical, and doesn't really prepare the student for actual combat. A guy could get clobbered while getting into this classical mess. Classical methods like these, which I consider a form of paralysis, only solidify and constrain what was once fluid. Their practitioners are merely blindly rehearsing routines and stunts that will lead nowhere.
I did a lot of student acting when I was young.
We all know that the real reason universities have students is in order to educate the professors.
Students who acquire large debts putting themselves through school are unlikely to think about changing society. When you trap people in a system of debt, they can't afford the time to think.
Pell Grants are, and have been, critically important tools in making higher education a possibility for lower- and middle-income students.
I encourage students to check out different styles of yoga and different teachers even within one system. Seek the teacher that inspires you, and practice the yoga that makes you feel the best. You'll then find the authentic practice for your life and path.
Students are rewarded for memorization, not imagination or resourcefulness.
I don't think we expect enough of students. They just need someone to show them the way.
All students of disaster movies know that nothing survives these natural onslaughts except cats and the highest paid film stars.
Schools ought to teach students to challenge secular ideologies masquerading as science in the classroom.
We should teach the students, as well as executives, how to conduct experiments, how to examine data, and how to use these tools to make better decisions.
There's no way in hell I could have achieved what I have without being a good student and listening to the wisdom of others
The students always, always surprise me.
The faster you go, the more students you leave behind. It doesn't matter how much or how fast you teach. The true measure is how much students have learned.
I don't ask my students to have studied film or any education in general. What I ask them is to come and sit and tell me a story, and the way they choose it and tell it, for me, the best criteria for whether they are right for making films. There's nothing more important than being able to tell your story orally.
Blue cheese contains natural amphetamines. Why are students not informed about this?
I deal with two types of students. Those who have a very deep-seated knowledge of love, which are few, or those in all their lives have ignored love.
Armenag Saroyan was the failed poet, the failed Presbyterian preacher, the failed American, the failed theological student.
American universities are organized on the principle of the nuclear rather than the extended family. Graduate students are grimly trained to be technicians rather than connoisseurs. The old German style of universal scholarship has gone.
[James Mattis] is a student of history. He's a strategic thinker.
