I fell in love with theater there, and after graduation I moved to Los Angeles to pursue acting.

We are living in 1937, and our universities, I suggest, are not half-way out of the fifteenth century. We have made hardly any changes in our conception of university organization, education, graduation, for a century - for several centuries.

Americans in particular are myopic. They're not traveling as much. When you were a college student, the next thing you would do on graduation was to take a year off and travel. That's what I did. I went to Indonesia.

The morning after my high-school graduation found me up early job hunting. The dream of college I put on the back burner.

A graduation ceremony is an event where the commencement speaker tells thousands of students dressed in identical caps and gowns that 'individuality' is the key to success.

One of the most difficult speeches to prepare is an address to a graduation class, which is why I don't often do them.

I received $100 per week when I started working at the Globe after graduation.

I've told my children that when I die, to release balloons in the sky to celebrate that I graduated. For me, death is a graduation.

A few months after graduation I was working in films. It took off pretty quick.

At the end of four years' time, at graduation, we were down to 12. At our reunion that we had several years ago, only 1 out of the 52 actually made it to ordination and priesthood. So there you go, there's your numbers.

I went to my son's graduation this weekend, and I heard a great quote I've never heard before from Albert Einstein. It was that the greatest danger to the world is not the bad people but it's the good people who don't speak out.

While I do commend the Administration on its commitment and focus on high school reform, I believe that we must focus on graduation as the key accountability measure.

I thought I should go to New York because it was the place to go to study. I went and tried to get an application from the Juilliard School but they wouldn't even give me one because I didn't have my high school graduation.

I disagree with a lot of those changes, however at the end of the day - I go down to recruit graduation at least once or twice a year.

From kindergarten to graduation, I went to public schools, and I know that they are a key to being sure that every child has a chance to succeed and to rise in the world.
