Explanation:

This is in reference to the play: "Death of a Salesman". Charlie said the words in quote above as a reply to Linda Loman who was the wife of the man being buried, Willie.

She believed that her husband would have been just fine if he had continued earning his little salary. Charlie refutes this however because he believes that a man needs more than just money to survive and that was what Willie did not understand. That was why Willie did not bother to live for himself but rather to chase money till he died.
