I had a little insight into life that most kids probably didnt have. My mother was a schoolteacher, and my father was a social worker. Through his eyes I saw the underside of society. – Charles Kuralt
I suppose I was a little bit of what would be called today a nerd. I didnt have girlfriends, and really I wasnt a very social boy. – Charles Kuralt
I saw how many people were poor and how many kids my age went to school hungry in the morning, which I dont think most of my contemporaries in racially segregated schools in the South thought very much about at the time. – Charles Kuralt
Since my retirement, Ive spent a lot of time trying to help the School of Social Work at the University of North Carolina. A society like this just cant afford an uneducated underclass of citizens. – Charles Kuralt
