Fortunately I didn't get educated because if I'd got educated I'd be an educated fool now.

By the end of high school I was not of course an educated man, but I knew how to try to become one.

I educated myself. To me, school was boring.

My parents were marvelously educated people.

Education is what you learn after you leave school.

I knew I wanted considerable education so that I wouldn't have to work as hard as my parents.

I'm entirely uneducated. I went to public school - public in the American sense - a blue-collar, working-class school. I never got a scholarship, I left when I was 15, never did any exams.

I count myself well educated, for the admirable woman at the head of the school which I attended from the age of four and a half till I was thirteen and a half, was a born teacher in advance of her own times.

Do I think I'm under-educated? Academically, absolutely. I never took any exams, no O- or A-levels.

I have no academic qualifications whatsoever.
