Text Quotes
I always found the extraordinary loss of life in the First World War very moving. I remember learning about it as a very young child, as an eight- or nine-year-old, asking my teachers what poppies were for. Every year the teachers would suddenly wear these red paper flowers in their lapels, and I would say ‘What does that mean?’  (Old Teachers Quotes) I wrote about a bird that cleaned a crocodile’s teeth. The story was so good that my teacher could not believe that a ten-year-old could write that well. I was even punished because my teacher thought I’d lied about writing it! I had always loved to write, but it was then that I realized that I had a talent for it  (Old Teachers Quotes) I certainly identify with the role of mentor and, to some degree, maybe teacher. I do a lot of work with kids at the Old Vic  (Old Teachers Quotes) My old dance teacher, Jimmy Wilde, a former European ballroom dancing champion, was so sophisticated.  (Old Teachers Quotes) When I was young my teachers were the old. I gave up fire for form till I was cold.  (Old Teachers Quotes) I have my teachers who tell me what to do. I’m not quite old enough yet to be truly independent.  (Old Teachers Quotes) I learned to fly planes at fifteen years old because one of my teachers thought I’d be a better pilot than rapper.  (Old Teachers Quotes) Old teachers never die, they just grade away  (Old Teachers Quotes) I see myself as an old man and an unqualified teacher to the nation. I think being a teacher is probably the most important thing you can be in politics  (Old Teachers Quotes) I got started when I was 3 years old because my father was a music teacher and my lessons were free. Instead of learning to walk, you learn to play the piano  (Old Teachers Quotes) As long as any adult thinks that he, like the parents and teachers of old, can become introspective, invoking his own youth to understand the youth before him, he is lost  (Old Teachers Quotes) When I had my first voice lesson I was 15 years old. And I had a really good teacher. This is what made all the difference. A good teacher will teach you the technique, but also how to listen to your voice  (Old Teachers Quotes) I do readings at the public library. I just did a benefit scene night for my old acting teacher  (Old Teachers Quotes) Enlightenment, the old teachers say, adds nothing, except maybe the recognition of a need for and a commitment to the work that still needs to be done  (Old Teachers Quotes)
