Teaching is my calling, Steven, but it's never been my dream. Dreams are made of sterner stuff.
That's ambition.
Up there, that's a dream. And this experience, I think, will only make conspicuous how... how my life is utterly without song, I guess.
S1 E14Chapter Fourteen
Steven, have you lost your mind?
Why does that question keep popping up?
Steven.
What?
I resign.
Why?
I'm a fossil.
You're just figuring that out?
Harry!
S1 E15Chapter Fifteen
We can win this competition without Tyronn. You guys are awesome. So, we'll get right back into it, and we'll be great, and nobody will get gum disease from bitin' anybody's ass.
I'm not taking her side.
TTina
Then what are you doing?
I'm covering my gigantic ass.
Don't tell me what to do, Harry.
It's Mr. Senate to you.
No, I think it's Harry.
You're a student!
Which gives me an excuse for all the stuff I pull. What's yours... Harry?
(to Scott) Would you like me to make a list of all the people who don't like you?
S1 E16Chapter Sixteen
I got to bed at night thinking of some prince who's gonna swoop in and take me to some exotic island and lick champagne off my naked self. It's my romanticized version, I guess, of wonder and magic. In the real world, my prince, my magic, it's you kids. And some days, when I see your faces go dead, all the wonder just drains out of me. That's all that was happening. I'm better now.
It's Harry.
Harvey!
You two are at odds.
We are not at odds.
Call me crazy then.
Well, gee, I'd be the first to do that, wouldn't I?
That was hurtful.
S1 E17Chapter Seventeen
You're suspended, Mr. Connelly.
SStudent
Look, please! If I get suspended, my parents will kill me.
Then perhaps this is Goodbye aswell. Retrieve your books. Be gone in one hour.
Do I look like I'm stupid, Ms. Holt?
SSheryl
Mr. Guber, if you keep asking those rhetorical questions, one day, somebody will respond, and the answer won't please you.
The only reason people study Shakespeare is so they know Shakespeare, so they can walk around pretending that they're smarter then everybody else. It's arrogant. You want to be arrogant snobs, move to England, they love Shakespeare there. It's a nation full of arrogant sex-depraved perverts.
You okay?
Oh, well, between us splitting up and me not owning a computer, I don't get to see you naked anymore.
I can't do it. I got a mother wantin' me to fumigate buses. I got one teacher keepin' secrets that should get him fired, and another teacher who's an old senile bigot who definitely should be fired. I got a student teaching a course for which I'm going to get my ass dragged in front of the school committee, and another teacher appearing naked on a student web site. And I hear you're walkin' around suspending everybody in your path. Is that true?
It is. It's been a good day.
S1 E18Chapter Eighteen
Can we discuss your hair?
PPatron
Hey, I'm not ashamed to be bald for your information. I just wear a disguise when I come to these places.
Excellent. I bet in real life your teeth are straight too.
