So Mothers Everywhere Take Heart. The Indoctrination

My Job At Stanford Is Rather Different From The Ones I Had Held Previously In That My Own Ambitions Must Take A Back Seat To The Well-being Of The Students With Whom I Work.

My Mother, Who Was Professional Schoolteacher, Was Particularly Concerned About Our Formal Education And Even Went So Far As To Start A Private School Together With Some Other Parents So That Our Intellectual Needs Would Be Met.

My Mother Also Had Us Take Piano Lessons, And This Had A Similar Effect. I Hated Those Lessons, But I Now Play Regularly For Pleasure And Have Even Tried My Hand At Composing.

I Was An Extremely Reclusive And Introverted Boy.
