About this Quote

Gracie Allen's quote is a funny method of expressing her intelligence and that of her household. She is suggesting that she was so wise that her teacher was not able to teach her anything brand-new after 5 years. This could be translated as a sign of her intelligence, along with her family's, as she is implying that her intelligence is hereditary. It might likewise be interpreted as an indication of her instructor's failure to teach her anything brand-new, as she was not able to stay up to date with Gracie's intelligence. Either way, the quote is an amusing method of expressing her intelligence and that of her family.
