Quote

College was just so essential for my sense of self and my development.

For whatever reason, college was just not a huge focus for me. I wasn't planning ahead. I just didn't think about it too much.

I love college life.

I think college is something I want to experience just to have the experience, really. I think about going to college all the time.

College isn't in everyone's hearts. I am living proof, though, that school doesn't mess up your plans. It gives you more experiences to write about.

College was the greatest four years of my life.

I kicked college nostalgia in my late 20s. As much as I loved college and treasure the memories, I no longer want to go back.

College had little effect on me. I'd have been the same writer if I'd gone to MIT, except I'd have flunked out sooner.

I could have probably been just as successful by not going to college, but it was the most intellectually stimulating environment that I was ever in.

I saw leaving college as an opportunity to do something different with my life. I always thought that becoming an academic was going to be my path.
