Quote by Ray Bradbury
I spent three days a week for 10 years educating myself in the pub

I spent three days a week for 10 years educating myself in the public library, and its better than college. People should educate themselves – you can get a complete education for no money. At the end of 10 years, I had read every book in the library and Id written a thousand stories. – Ray Bradbury
