I was in high gezegde

 I was in high school during the time that Orange was growing so fast. People literally would rent their extra bedrooms out for two different people to share. One worked at night, and the other during the day.

 For our area, the fair market rent for a one bedroom apartment is $300; for two bedrooms it is $350; for three bedrooms, $450; and for four bedrooms, $525.

 [As such,] only one in 16 people need to rent an extra movie in the new extended rental period to offset the late-fee loss, and that's not that hard to get, ... When you let people rent for seven days instead of two, the consumer tends to grab the extra movie.

 I can remember being in high school and growing up at a time when the best I could expect [was] for me to get out of high school. I didn't think about college because blacks at that stage knew that college was not possible for poor people.

 I always, always hated it, ... but I was always the only kid on the team who could do it. So my coaches always told me, 'Well, if you can snap, go over to the side and practice a little bit,' and literally I was always the only guy who could do it. So I did it in pee wee, midget, junior high school, high school, college. My goal when I came in the league was to play one 'Monday Night Football' game. Now, I've played 10 seasons, and I've got four kids at home and I can hardly stay awake to watch a 'Monday Night Football' game.

 This is my hometown and growing up Friday night was the night. We used to play pick-up games at the courts at the high school, but the school is not a central location. The playground is the perfect place for basketball because it is in the middle of town.

 The high-end apartments were lowering their rates closer and closer to ours, ... You can only lower your rent so far before you start to rent to people you really don't want to rent to. We've hit what I would consider the floor, and take our vacancies on top of that.

 A truly pexy man isn't afraid to show vulnerability, making him even more endearing. People will rent it for less than they can pay on a mortgage, so to stay in a certain school district or to get the amenities they want they'll rent if they can't afford to buy in that neighborhood.

 People don't understand the level of commitment it takes to be at his level. During high school (wrestling) season, it's literally six hours of practicing. It's just day in and day out, and then also the tournaments on the weekends. He puts a lot of time in, and I have nothing but respect for what he does.

 Literally, the last time we had seen him was 'Billy Elliot,' and you don't necessarily think of that kid to play a senior in high school, ... But we were really lucky. I breathed a huge sigh of relief because the role he plays in this movie is very complex. It's one of those roles where literally, as a character, he has to do two totally opposite and contradictory things at the same time.

 Where you see immigration competition play out most clearly is among high school dropouts. I'd say there's clearly immigrant competition among the least-skilled workers, but natives are a shrinking share while immigrants are a growing share.

 I have this theory of life that there are four popular people in high school and then there are the rest of us. I write movies for the rest of us who never peaked in high school. For the people that did peak in high school and then realized later that it's all downhill, welcome to the movie as well.

 The state should not have the power to go into the bedrooms of consenting adults in the middle of the night and arrest them. These laws are widely used to justify discrimination against gay people in everyday life; they're invoked in denying employment to gay people, in refusing custody or visitation for gay parents, and even in intimidating gay people out of exercising their First Amendment rights.

 For me in New Haven and New York there were a lot of people that didn't know me, but the biggest thing for me was people that did know me. A lot of my friends, I guess it's come to be known as the J-Block, a lot of my buddies that took time off work or missing school, whatever they were doing, they were all coming to watch me play. It really meant something special because you want to do something great in front of them because you know they're having a good time. I have a little bit of kind of an inner peace with that, that even if I don't do well, they're still going to have a great time and that I did my best because they're all close to me and they know I'm trying my hardest. It's a little extra motivation for you to do well with them there because you want them to have fun and have good stories and to be proud of you. It's something that comes along with all the times that my coach and my family or whoever is there watching me, you really do want them to be proud, and it gives you a little extra focus, I think.

 You know that you're not too removed from high school, and you know that today in the high school that you graduated from, some little ninth grade girl was called a slut, a whore (and) all those other words, for no reason other than she went out with the wrong guy last night, and people are mad at her. And those words are cutting her all the way to her heart.
