Somebody who knows nothing in the world will not get much farther than the doorstep of their crumbling house. What kind of job will they be able to achieve? Nothing more than menial. And how can a house stand a hurricane if it has nothing holding it to the ground. Not very long.

One must have some form of education, common sense, or exceptional skill in order to succeed. Otherwise they are just a warm presence in a complex world. The same goes for a house, it will only stand for so long before it crumbles.

A house sits on a foundation. That foundation allows the house to be stable, to stay steady. It will provide a more stable place to live.

A person's life rests on the person's (body's) knowledge. The knowledge allows the person to do things without having to guess so often, thus leading to a more stable life.

If you don't know certain things tou will eventually fall. Just like a house without a foundation. What will hold you up then? If you don't know, or if you don't go to school and study you are destined to fail/fall.

It has no base or core to hold it up and keep it together.
A body is useless without knowledge.
