Looking back, I realise it wasn't only gym I dreaded at school. Every class was a torment. It wasn't knowledge I objected to but instruction. Why couldn't they just tell us what books to read and leave us to get on and read them?
I don't think I really like going to class that much.
Given the choice, the majority of children wouldn't go to school at all. The whole thing's ghastly.
I always hated school.
As is true for most people I know, I've always loved learning. As is also true for most people I know, I always hated school. Why is that?
I had dropped out of Memphis State University after two years because I felt the real world was too exciting.
I go to school, but I never learn what I want to know.
I couldn't think of anything less appealing than molding the minds of tomorrow's leaders.
After high school, I enrolled at the University of Nebraska at Lincoln, but I stayed only a year and a half. I felt college was a waste of time; I wanted to start working.
No sense making plans to get a job or finish school at Johns Hopkins, which I just wasn't getting anything out of. Life was waiting to go back on 'Jeopardy!'
