Inconformity at the School of Architecture
Already an old man, Anton Gaudí was recalling his passing along the School of Architecture of Barcelona, where his initial inconformity led him to being an evil pupil:

"While the professor was reciting the lessons, in initial inconformity I was raising the problems of plastic arts and of statics that some years later I would resolve; this was making me be an evil pupil, because these ponderings were forbidding me to follow the speeches of the professors, and suspense were abundant. On the other hand, I was devouring the Library of the School."
