“In this world, it's not enough to have a fine education. You need a piece of paper to prove you got it.”
“...even though I was getting better education at home than any of the kids in Toyah, I'd need to go to finishing school when I was thirteen, both to acquire social graces and to earn a diploma. Because in this world, Dad said, it's not enough to have a fine education. You need a piece of paper to prove you go it.”
“Without action, a vision is just a piece of paper. In education, we have lots of paper.”
“Education is important! That piece of paper is your key to success”
“What you’re saying is a person whoever has a piece of paper can get a job to teach someone else to get a piece of paper, and it's those who have a piece of paper which say whether those who wish to have a piece of paper can have a piece of paper, and then those who received a piece of paper from those who have a piece of paper can either go on to higher employment or continue to teach other people who wish to have a piece of paper..." (Kang Dee, dolphin, talking about degrees)”
“If you feel obsessed to prove something to the world, then you'd need world attention to be able to prove it.”
