Quote from Chris in Everybody Hates the Guidance Counselor
Chris: Well, I talked to a few people and I still don't know what I want to do for a living, but I do know that my mom wants me to go to college. Mr. Abbott: College? W-W-Why? Chris: To learn? Mr. Abbott: Learn? You can learn anywhere, Chris. You can learn by reading a fortune cookie. If you get hit by a truck, you learn not to walk out into traffic. If you smack Mike Tyson, you learn that you are going to get your ass whooped. But your parents are way too broke for you to go to college to just learn. They need you to go to college and learn how to get a job. Besides, I think it's a little too early for you to be thinking about college right now.
