Educated People

Dad told me he had a great respect for educated people, not having an education himself.

It took me a long time to realize, to understand, that those with a college education are not smarter than me, usually did not know more than me.

He still said it as if he hoped I would tell him that he was right in the first place, that there was a there there.

He usually followed this by talking about how lucky he was to have had so many intelligent people in his life to educate him, frequently women.
