When I was a boy of fourteen, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be twenty-one, I was astonished at how much he had learned in seven years.
—Mark Twain, "Old Times on the Mississippi" Atlantic Monthly, 1874

My father drew my attention to that one. I am embarrassed to admit that it was a pretty accurate description of my youthful arrogance.
