No one wants a good education. Everyone wants a good degree.

No one wants a good education. Everyone wants a good degree.

Summary

This quote reflects the prevailing mindset in society where individuals prioritize obtaining a diploma or degree rather than genuinely pursuing a meaningful and well-rounded education. It suggests that the ultimate goal for many people is not to acquire knowledge and skills, but rather to secure a certification, believing it will guarantee better job prospects or social status. Sadly, this quote highlights the materialistic and outcome-oriented approach to education prevalent in contemporary society, rather than emphasizing personal growth and the pursuit of knowledge for its own sake.
