I've teamed up with one of the headmasters at Eton College, and we're spearheading a kind of 'slow education movement in Britain'. It's based on this idea of moving away from the fast-food approach to learning and going to something deeper, more woolly, harder to measure.
Eton Quotes : pic 000167259
I went to the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama, which was great but very different from a typical university. They sat us down in the first week and said: if you want to party, you've come to the wrong place. There was no lie-ins or skipping lectures.

Eton Quotes : pic 001440817
It [Cambridge] wasn't a holy grail in the sense that I'd never been to Cambridge. But then, when I did go, the contrast between Leeds, which was very black and sooty in those days, and Cambridge, which seemed like something out of a fairystory, in the grip of a hard frost, was just wonderful.

Eton Quotes : pic 000209577
To the University of Oxford I acknowledge no obligation; and she will as cheerfully renounce me for a son, as I am willing to disclaim her for a mother. I spent fourteen months at Magdalen College: they proved the fourteen months the most idle and unprofitable of my whole life.
Eton Quotes : pic 001031642
Well ... I graduated from the business school of Northumberland University in Newcastle.
Eton Quotes : pic 000767349
Where's the course called How to Lead a Life of Crime? That's what this is about, isn't it? You've got everyone thinking this is the best school in the country, but it's really just a Hogwarts for hustlers.
Eton Quotes : pic 001727199

Eton Quotes : pic 000366812

Eton Quotes : pic 000757926
Oxford has a slightly mythical rep, particularly for people who haven't been there.
Eton Quotes : pic 000415361

Eton Quotes : pic 000913856
Exeter was, I suspect, more crucial in my life than in the lives of most members of my class, and conceivably, than in the lives of almost anyone else who ever attended the school.
Eton Quotes : pic 000446275
I didn't know a thing about Oxford and had never been to Britain. My father suggested it because in 1939 he had been about to take up a place at Wadham College, but the war broke out, and he joined the Army instead.

Gryffindor, where dwell the brave at heart!
Eton Quotes : pic 000765555

Eton Quotes : pic 001230070

Eton Quotes : pic 000042943

Eton Quotes : pic 000413603

Eton Quotes : pic 001345401
The best teaching I ever experienced was at Exeter. Yale was a distinct letdown afterward.
Eton Quotes : pic 000389828
Oxford in the Inklings' day was not so different in look and smell from the Oxford of today. Then, as now, one was tempted to fantasize one's surroundings as a Camelot of intellectual knight-errantry or an Eden of serene contemplation. Then, as now, there was bound to be disappointment.
Eton Quotes : pic 000588107
When I was asked to write a message for your brochure I gladly accepted as I remember my first school tour of England was Wales. The experience proved extremely useful in my development of a cricketer.
Eton Quotes : pic 000455403
In the deep, tacit way in which feeling becomes stronger than thought, I had always felt that the Devon School came into existence the day i entered it, was vibrantly real while i was a student there, and then blinked out like a candle the day I left
Eton Quotes : pic 000992666

Eton Quotes : pic 000365229

Eton Quotes : pic 001771079
For your own sake you must go to Oxford, you'll need every weapon your brain can give you; being what you are you'll need every weapon.
Eton Quotes : pic 000435452
A university anywhere can aim no higher than to be as British as possible for the sake of the undergraduates, as German as possible for the sake of the public at large-and as confused as possible for the preservation of the whole uneasy balance.
Eton Quotes : pic 000985715
At 11, I passed the scholarship - only just; I wasn't very good at maths - to Ilford County High for Girls. When the Second World War started we were evacuated, first of all to Ipswich, and then to Aberdare, Queen of the Valleys, in south Wales.
Eton Quotes : pic 001535560
I like English parks.
Eton Quotes : pic 000670843
At boarding schools of every description, the relaxation of the junior boys is mischief; and of the senior, vice.
