Terry Morris (photographer) - Early Life

Early Life

Terry Morris was born in Llanelli in September 1965. He attended Lakefield Infant and Primary School before moving on to Graig Comprehensive School, Llanelli. Self-confessed as ‘not the best academic’, Terry lost interest in school during his teens and only stayed on his final year, aged 15, to study woodwork with his favourite teacher ‘Mr Evans’ (Mike Evans), lovingly known as ‘Killer’ (due to his Size 13 plimsole!)

Terry left school at 16 and joined the Parachute Regiment in which he served for five years.

During the following years he worked in many different jobs, including as a labourer for his father’s building firm, before settling as a welder for Llanelli-based sound and lighting firm PA Installations.

Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:

    ““next to of course god america i
    love you land of the pilgrims” and so forth oh
    say can you see by the dawn’s early my
    country ‘tis of centuries come and go
    and are no more what of it we should worry
    in every language even deafanddumb
    thy sons acclaim your glorious name by gorry
    by jing by gee by gosh by gum”
    —E.E. (Edward Estlin)

    “The great end of life is not knowledge, but action. What men need is as much knowledge as they can assimilate and organize into a basis for action; give them more and it may become injurious. One knows people who are as heavy and stupid from undigested learning as other are from over-fulness of meat and drink.”
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
