There are a few others who might have similar feelings to Josh

Einstein reckoned 'It is a miracle that curiosity survives formal education.'

Paulo Freire, a big guy in education theory said, 'Education either functions as an instrument which is used to facilitate integration of the younger generation into the logic of the present system and bring about conformity or it becomes the practice of freedom, the means by which men and women deal critically and creatively with reality and discover how to participate in the transformation of their world.'

The philosopher Bertrand Russell thought schooling was, 'One of the chief obstacles to intelligence and freedom of thought.'

Cicero thought that this was partially because 'The authority of those who teach is often an obstacle to those who want to learn.'

But as Mark Twain said 'I have never let my schooling interfere with my education.'
