Quantity over Quality 

Quantity of a work is more important than the quality of a work.
Student: I wrote an essay 1 sentence long. It has really deep and abstract meaning, and only philosophers can grasp the true meaning.

Teacher: lmao it's quantity over quality. Who taught you to write like that? smh. Jason got 100% on this essay assignment because he wrote 10 page long essay. I didn't bother reading it because it completely meant he spent really much of time on it. You are getting 5% on it.
