I'm not sure what kind of quote you're looking for, but googling "school quotes" will for sure come up with something.
Personally I've always liked the quote, "School is like a drive by shooting. Once it's over, you're just happy to have gotten out alive."
(Or something along those lines =P)
best wishes!
