About This Quote
This is a very common quote which is often used as a criticism of those who do not go to college or university. The idea behind it is that those who do not pursue higher education are doomed to failure because they are not well-educated. But, this quote actually speaks more about the value of higher education in general. It does not say that marriage is worthless but it says that school is the more valuable path.
