Ferdinand was a gold trader. He was a lawyer for mining companies. When he entered politics in l949 he had tons and tons of gold. When Bill Gates was a college dropout Ferdinand already possessed billions of dollars and tons of gold. It wasn't stolen.

When I was in college I used to write little ditties and short stories and poetry for my friends. Writing a book is another thing. It is so much different from my traditional day of dirty fingernails and greasy hair and hot pans.

You know bad poetry I wrote in high school can still be found on the Internet and you know there's a Web log of our college newspaper. You know there's so many different stages of my creative development are sort of on-record if somebody were to choose to look for them.

I've been composing music all my life and if I'd been clever enough at school I would like to have gone to music college.

Like anyone who goes to college you're leaving a familiar surrounding and a comfortable environment and your friends and everything and you're starting fresh. It can be pretty daunting.

All my friends were in college when I was making 'Superbad.' We were drinking beer and watching movies and eating pizza. It wasn't like I was going to nice restaurants or anything like that and I lived like a frat guy. Eventually it was time to grow up be healthy and be responsible. You can't live like a kid forever you know?

I went through this very serious Woody Allen phase in college and a little bit after college. I still see his movies.

I took acting classes in college and once I graduated I decided to give acting a shot when I couldn't really think of anything else to do. It took me a couple of years to get an agent and my first big break was The Fanelli Boys which was a sitcom on NBC. Then I did a few television movies.

I'll probably pursue doing more movies but not horror or movies with killers in them. I'll try to stick to happy movies. I want to act and direct like Jodie Foster. I admire her because she went to college and she's still doing the same thing.

By going to the movies and because of other things too going to college making a wide variety of friends moving around traveling I became a lot more open-minded than the heritage I was born into might have suggested.

I hated high school. Ugh. I couldn't wait until it was over so I could sleep in. In college I made sure all my classes were in the afternoon. I hated getting up in the morning.

We hear the stories every day now: the father who puts on a suit every morning and leaves the house so his daughter doesn't know he lost his job the recent college grad facing up to the painful reality that the only door that's open to her after four years of study and a pile of debt is her parents'. These are the faces of the Obama economy.

I never really drank coffee in college but now I'm on my feet all day and out all night and can't believe it hasn't always been in my life. When morning comes I crave it.

People look at me and they go 'You're white you're smart you must have went to college. You must have grown up with money.'

I don't believe we are supposed to go through life defeated and not having enough money to pay our bills or send our kids to college.

I wasn't always a writer. When I went to college and majored in fine arts I was a painter. Then I was a stay-at-home mom.

Married and divorced three beautiful daughters two in college. The other one is 16 lives with her mom. I'm 46 I've worked for the Post Office for 18 years seven facilities in three states.

I'm talking like 10 12 years old. Either junior brings Mom and Pop or Mom and Pop bring the kids. I'm talking young here not a college drinking crowd.

I want to go to college to study journalism. I want to speak French fluently to travel. My mom was a journalist and it's in my blood.

My mom didn't want me to go to college. She didn't want me to read - when I read I may as well have been holding a pineapple.

I wanted to go to medical school. But I never got a college scholarship.

I regret to this day that I never went to college. I feel I should have been a doctor.

College is a place to keep warm between high school and an early marriage.

Never get married in college it's hard to get a start if a prospective employer finds you've already made one mistake.
