Quotes 

• Hannibal Applewood : I have seen the likes of you before. You want the children to toll the line, but you're afraid to discipline them! There must be order! There must be routine! There must be rules! And those rules must apply to all students! You cannot alter those rules, you cannot change order. I must have ORDER!

• Hannibal Applewood : [dejectedly walking towards the schoolhouse door after sealing his own fate during a school board meeting, pausing to take his hat, sounding defeated]  My resignation will be on the desk in the morning.
