Excerpt from Story of My Life, Vol. 2
Dr. Liddell, when it was Shown up, only said, I think you are rather severe.
AS to education, I did not receive much more at Oxford this year than I had done before. The college lectures were the merest rubbish; and Of what was learnt to pass the University examinations, nothing has Since been Of use to me, except the History for the final Schools. About fourteen years of life and above £4000 I consider to have been wasted on my education of nothingness. At Oxford, however, I was not idle, and the History, French, and Italian, which I taught myself, have always been useful.
