I will continue my activities related to education in one way or another. I certainly would have at the top my agenda with respect to education the need to do much better with modern educational technology.
It was depressing very depressing. I worried about how I would make a living. I didn't want to stay on the farm. It didn't offer the challenge I wanted and yet without a college education I felt that I was really out of luck.

I think the whole system of education would change if I were in charge and had the ability to make changes. I don't think I would keep Princeton exactly being Princeton.
Education in our times must try to find whatever there is in students that might yearn for completion and to reconstruct the learning that would enable them autonomously to seek that completion.

I had never done anything with blue screen before or prosthetics or anything like that. Lord of the Rings was like stepping into a videogame for me. It was another world completely.

If the education and studies of children were suited to their inclinations and capacities many would be made useful members of society that otherwise would make no figure in it.
My father is a real idealist and he's all about learning. If I asked for a pair of Nikes growing up it was just a resounding 'No.' But if I asked for a saxophone one would appear and next day and I'd be signed up for lessons.

There are absolutely no problems between me my dad and my sister. Obviously I grew up with just my mum but my relationship with my dad is just fine.
