Later, in his autobiographies, Berners would reflect on his experiences at Eton, claiming that he had learned nothing while there, and that the school was more concerned with shaping the young men's characters than supplying them with an education.
Později ve svých autobiografiích Berners tvrdil, že se tam nic nenaučil, že škola se více zajímala o formování charakteru mladých mužů než o jejich vzdělání.
