Summary

This quote humorously highlights the idea that educational achievements, such as graduating from medical school, carry significant value and respect regardless of one's standing within the class. It suggests that the title of "Doctor" is not contingent upon academic ranking but rather the completion of the required education and training. The quote challenges the notion that success should be solely measured by comparison to others and emphasizes the importance of acknowledging and appreciating individual accomplishments.
