"I enjoyed it like hell, but for art, I never learned a damn thing."
When I read those words from John Lennon, regarding art school, I couldn't figure out if he was a fool or a liar. I'm still not sure.
It's unthinkable to me that anyone creative could fail to learn something from an experience--be it positive or negative. We're the sum total of every moment that's gone before, including times that seem like they're made of air.
So for such a man to say he's learned nothing, I can't help but think: What a waste, or what a liar.
