"J'ai fait une liste des choses qu'ils ne vous apprennent pas à l'école. Ils ne vous apprennent pas comment aimer quelqu'un. Ils ne vous apprennent pas comment être célèbre. Ils ne vous apprennent pas comment être riche ou comment être pauvre. Ils ne vous a"
— Neil Gaiman

Simplified Meaning:
Schools teach many important subjects like math, science, and history, but they don't cover everything you need to know for life. For example, schools don't teach you how to fall in love and maintain a relationship. They also don't teach you how to handle fame or how to manage money, whether you're rich or struggling. When it comes to tough emotional situations, like breaking up with someone you don't love anymore or comforting a dying friend, schools don't provide guidance. Understanding what others are thinking or feeling is another complex skill you don't learn in a classroom. These are some of the most important life skills, and you often have to learn them through personal experience and sometimes the hard way.
