It was always assumed that I would go to college.

As a student I learned from wonderful teachers and ever since then I've thought everyone is a teacher.

My mother wanted me to be a professor, because I have several people in my family who are professors at university.

I guess if I weren't an actor, I'd be a history professor.

I would have liked to have been a professor of sociology.

I went to college and graduate school, studying philosophy. I really did think I was going to wind up being a lecturer or professor of some sort.

I always wanted to be a teacher.

I always thought I would be a teacher. And I think I actually lived up to my initial dreams, because what I do now is teach millions and millions of people many different kinds of things.

My mother is a professor of early childhood education. When I was two she would say she knew I was going to be an actor.

I've always done more than I ever thought I would. Becoming a professor - I never would have imagined that. Writing books - I never would have imagined that. Getting a Ph.D. - I'm not sure I would even have imagined that. I've lived my life a step at a time. Things sort of happened.
