I was a brilliant student. I always try to be the best.

In some parts of life, like mathematics and science, yeah, I was a genius. I would top all the top scores you could ever measure it by.

I'm not exactly a maths genius - I'm really good at maths, maths was my favorite subject in school, but I wasn't a genius.

All through the student years, I was at the top of my class although I was two years younger than everybody else.

I was a good student in school.

I didn't really enjoy school. I wouldn't say they were my golden years.

Smartness runs in my family. When I went to school I was so smart my teacher was in my class for five years.

I wasn't a particularly brilliant student, but on the other hand, I was very active in Student Union affairs and in student politics.

We are all geniuses up to the age of ten.

I had been an academic all my life. As academics, you tend to believe the smartest people are in academia.
