Everything in life turns out to be a distraction from the real thing you want to do. There are a million distractions and when I was a kid I was very disciplined. I knew that the other kids weren't.

I loathed every day and regret every day I spent in school. I like to be taught to read and write and add and then be left alone.
Woody Allen
