1492. As children we were taught to memorize this year with pride and joy as the year people began living full and imaginative lives on the continent of North America.

Jim Phillips
Coach Weis' scheme sets us up in favorable positions all the time. The biggest thing is the way he's taught us as far as where to go with the ball in every single situation.

Juan Llera

Al Mohler
The workshop talks about cultural diversity, cultural differences and the differences and similarities between what we're taught as children.

Dwaine Board
I was taught, like I'm trying to teach my kids, to pick up after yourself. If you use something put it away when you're done. Those lessons never stuck when I was a kid. My parents tried to beat it into my head. Somewhere through that process I developed a passion for the environment.

I said to myself, I have things in my head that are not like what anyone has taught me - shapes and ideas so near to me - so natural to my way of being and thinking that it hasn't occurred to me to put them down. I decided to start anew, to strip away what I had been taught.
Georgia O'Keeffe

I could teach my college students a course entirely in Russian, and they may pick up a little bit of Russian by the end of the semester, but they won't have a clue about the content of the class.

I had one man tell me that fantasy had taught him to be a grownup fan rather than a child fan. The St. Louis Cardinals don't care about me. Why should I care about them?

Don Levy
They're competitors. They're taught to never give up. You have a bad event, there are two things you can do -- either keep going that way or fight back. They chose to come back fighting. I knew they had it in them. We've just got to get them to do it in all four events.

Really, what we need to do is get people talking our language in our homes. My mother was a fluent speaker with a huge amount of knowledge of our history, but she never taught me.

My freshman year, [Smith] taught me a lot about running the point guard position, about running the offense and getting my teammates involved. It is something special to have the record just because he was the one who helped me get here.

Arberdella Davis
He taught me to play every position and he taught me how to switch hit.
Roberta Crawford
Sometimes a tragedy is just a tragedy and not a harbinger of a bad trend. It is important not to lose sight of why we try and keep children in their homes. Lots of years of experience have taught us that in most cases, this is the best outcome. It is not done lightly.
Sue Jacobs
Seeds of Peace exists in the real world. It exists among people who've been taught to hate each other, and it's finding some basis for them to coexist with one another.
John Wallach
I am beginning to suspect all elaborate and special systems of education. They seem to me to be built up on the supposition that every child is a kind of idiot who must be taught to think.
Anne Sullivan
The key question is, 'Are you ready for first-year college-level coursework?' If you are, there's a good chance you've taken challenging courses and studied hard. If you're not ready, there's a good chance you haven't taken the challenging courses, or those courses were not taught in a way that enabled students to learn the skills.
Ken Gullette
I talked to Alecia only a couple of days prior to the accident. The smile that everyone has been talking about was so evident even over the phone. ...

Brian Woods
But psychoanalysis has taught that the dead—a dead parent, for example—can be more alive for us, more powerful, more scary, than the living. It is the question of ghosts.

Sherlyn Lattimer
Luckily, thanks to the way my parents taught me, I think I can handle the fame in the right manner.

Cokie Roberts

Sargent College

Giorgos Seferis
She followed in her mother's footsteps. She graduated with honors in high school and college and taught first and second grade in San Antonio 40 years.
Gerald Batto
That was kind of tough because my father (Raymond) taught in the schools here. She was always talking to young people about education, always counseling young people to go to school, get an education. 'Education is your ticket to anything you want to do.' That's why she paid for so many kids to go to school.
Conrad Coleman
I knew they'd come out running the option, and they did. Our guy didn't come up like he was taught to do. It's that simple.
Tim Willis
You can't wear revealing clothes because of the sex addicts. Instead, you wear big bras, big pants and baggy tops. You're taught to respect others' addictions.
Kerry Katona
I've always wanted to be an entertainer just like Donny Osmond. To be able to have a music career with my two best friends, the guys who taught me all about music, is a dream come true.
Chris Burke
I usually just tell the kid that I can hear his dad talking and to put him on the phone. But it's sad when the parents have taught their kids to lie at such a young age, especially when they claim they don't like telemarketers because the telemarketers are liars-it's parents like them that the bad telemarketers get it from!
Andrew Nielson
American students are more frank compared with Asian and Filipino students. It's taught me how to try and understand students and how to best deal with them.
Francisco Franco
The slides are the way art history is taught. It's the way artists and art historians learn about art. Even now, a good portion of your art history classes is taught with slides, not digitally.
Matt Distel
He was a little of both. I didn't know much in those days, because it was only my third film. I was learning on my feet and he taught me a great deal. He was very open to actors' suggestions and he used whatever spontaneous thoughts or suggestions we might have, if they suited his purpose. He was a firm, but gentle leader.
Robert Wise
It was a gypsy-type artist colony, and I attended the Wildflower Festival there and had my first ear candling treatment. I really liked it and decided to learn how to do it for others. I do it for my whole family, and I have taught my husband how to do it so I can have a treatment too.
Therese Lynston
I played with my brothers all the time. It was good competition with (Ken), who is only two years older than me. My brothers pretty much taught me everything I know.
Ike Nwaelele
They?ve got a quarterback (in Drew Bledsoe) with a strong arm and a lot of experience and two veteran receivers who know all the tricks of the trade. So we will have to keep good eye contact on them and be ready to do all the things we?ve been taught to do as defensive backs.
Corey Webster
Unfortunately, our understanding of labor history is (bad) -- it is not taught, it is not celebrated.
Haskell Wexler
These girls talk team, they speak team, they behave team. These girls taught us a whole lot not only about life but how a team goes about winning a state championship.
Mark Sheedy
My Father taught me how to be a man – and not by instilling in me a sense of machismo or an agenda of dominance. He taught me that a real man doesn't take, he gives; he doesn't use force, he uses logic; doesn't play the role of trouble-maker, but rather, trouble-shooter; and most importantly, a real man is defined by what's in his heart, not his pants.
Kevin Smith
If we taught children to speak, they'd never learn.
William Hull
I taught myself to play the piano. I've always been able to play, the minute I could get my hands up. I've always wanted to play the piano. It's the only instrument I've ever really liked, and it's the only one that's ever interested me.
Jerry Hunt
Stepping out of what you've been taught is right or real, and meeting these people and becoming friends with them can be life-changing.

Joshua Thompson
Being with these kids -- knowing their smiles, their pain and their courage -- changed my life and taught me about life and death. These children left me with a simple reality: We don't always have much control over what happens to us, but we do have a choice in how we respond.
Pat Lafontaine
You can choose to be happy or sad and whichever you choose that is what you get. No one is really responsible to make someone else happy, no matter what most people have been taught and accept as true.

Jennifer Connelly
We have a lot of students that want to work with their hands and could be very successful if they were taught a trade.

Frank Tibolt
Tell her, if you wiil, that sorrow / Need not come in vain; / Tell her that the lesson taught her / Far outweighs the pain.

The mixture of police and military duties is dangerous. Our history has taught us that. And a World Cup is not in any way a reason to deviate from that principle.
Theo Zwanziger
What has this taught us? It takes a community to get involved.
Stephanie Parker
What this taught us is that in three weeks, the state meet is going to be close. This prepared us for that close meet. These seniors haven?t experienced a state championship and they want to be part of one. Sometimes you don?t realize how close it can be until a meet like this. This lets us know where we need to double up and get some extra points.
Drew Yoakum
I don't think we were taught a lesson in New Zealand, it was more a case of our experience confirming what a lot of people knew already.

In the first two games, we went against all the principles that coaches taught us in practice. This time, we just did a better job of clamping down and making sure they didn't get a lot of open shots.

Even today, well-brought-up English girls are taught by their mothers to boil all veggies for at least a month and a half, just in case one of the dinner guests turns up without his teeth.
Calvin Trillin
In boys, it's ingrained in their heads that to dunk is just the highlight of basketball, whereas for girls, our shooting technique, making baskets and free throws is taught more. It's such a sexist approach to the sport sometime. Men aren't encouraging their little girls to try to work on their hops. They're encouraging them to work on their jump shots and the fundamentals of the game.
Lisa Leslie
I realized that the elite - and I'm from that class - don't have any idea about how most of the people in Venezuela live. This taught me a lot about my own city.
Jonathan Jakubowicz
Life has taught me that it is not for our faults that we are disliked and even hated, but for our qualities.
Bernard Berenson

Rebecca Mckinney
One thing he taught me was how to throw on the run when I was young. He always had a good arm.

In teaching, you should be-lieve that what you are pre-senting to students is the most important thing being taught, ... As principal, I have to help pro-vide the right environment so teachers can teach and students can learn.
Kevin Knight
I don't care if, or who, whatever historical figure they want to say is gay. If we're discussing history, who someone had sex with is inappropriate. I don't think most Californians want history and social sciences taught through the lens of who in history slept with whom.
Karen England
In matters of politics and government, the church maintains a policy of remaining neutral institutionally. Latter-day Saints are taught to support their local and national governments, but the church does not endorse candidates, parties or platforms.
Dale Bills
Christianity, in its enlarged sense, as a religion revealed and taught in the bible, is not unknown to our law.
James Kent
Usually you take a penalty because you're a little bit tired or lazy and you're out of position. Ron has been really stressing that for a couple of seasons, really. So the new rules are just reinforcing the theories he taught us over the last couple of years. It's not a real drastic change for us because of the way we played before -- sticks in passing lanes and good body position.
Scott Thornton
It's a difficult situation. I've always taught the guys to hang tough in tough times, and they have. I'm looking forward to getting back. It's going to be good to see them again.
Scott Olson
They are warm and loving. They helped us through a really tough time. They taught us it will be OK. It will never be the same, but it will be OK.
Sharon Luzier
The lawsuit challenges the practice of the Minneapolis School District of using Abraham Lincoln High School as a warehouse for immigrant high school aged students. Students sat in mainstream classrooms for years, not understanding what was being said, or what was being taught.
David Shulman
It worked, and that taught us something about spatial display of information -- it's possible to do things that aren't linear.
David Bohrman
That happened to me last year, but we ended up making a lot of good connections and he definitely taught myself and my family a lot about the music industry. It just made me stronger and I know now to keep my guard up a little bit better.
Kellie Lynne
It's four years and it's a special group, special place and four years I'll never forget. I don't even know how to put it in words. (Marquette basketball) has taught me so much, mostly off the floor stuff that is, that I'm going to continue on my whole life with.
Carolyn Kieger
I think it taught us a lot of responsibility. It was great for us.
Tiffani O'neal
I don't mean this in any sort of trite way, ... but the music has really been the thing that has healed us over and over again. It is the thing that has held us together and taught us about each other.
Billy Corgan
She taught you how to be a person who refuses anything but the meaningful. [About Susan Sontag].
Michael Silverblatt
Has taught us that you can't really predict what's going to happen during any season. I think we're going to make up ground.
Nikki Rocco
There's not much really to do in a hospital, but I worked a little bit, thought a lot about life and what priorities are truly important, spent quality time with Heather and Joshua, and, yes, taught him to play street hockey.
