Parents have absolutely every right to express their opinions at public school board meetings concerning their children's education.

I had been laughed at my whole life through school, and I never really thought of it as a vocation. I mean, I started off as a soldier, and then I went into the university thinking I was going to be a...

I dressed as the Riddler once, when I was little too heavy to do. I would wear tights. My brother was in a hair metal band, and he had Riddler tights made. My brother's a geek, but he was in a heavy...

My parents told me, 'Skating is a privilege, not a right, and school always comes first.'

Not only would my parents work full hours, my parents both woke up at 5 A.M. My dad left the house at 5 A.M. to go to the fish market to pick out his own fish, and my mom woke up at 5 A.M. to wake me...

I was playing basketball, and I had hemorrhoids in high school.

I went to a private arts school. We had to wear cloaks.

For years I was a rock climber and nothing else. I went to school, yes, and university, yes, but in my heart I was a rock climber.

My best days do seem like a distillation of all that was best about school. Write a story! Paint a picture! Write a poem! Make a print!

I was going to school; I was working - at one point, I had two jobs - and I was still trying to train and fight.

My first job out of school was to do basic research at Johns Hopkins University's applied physics lab.
