"One of the professors told me last week that he feels bad teaching with the way the economy is now. ‘What’s the point?’ he said. ‘Kids aren’t getting jobs.’ You never hear faculty talk that way. He did."

"It is clearly absurd to limit the term 'education' to a person's formal schooling."

"I think the key indicator for wealth is not good grades, work ethic, or IQ. I believe it's relationships. Ask yourself two questions: How many people do I know, and how much ransom money could I get for each one?"

"As you can see, there are quite a number of things taught in school that one has to unlearn or at least correct."

"I want to kidnap kids and force them to take useless tests all day long. Wait, that’s what our public education system already does."
