"En littérature comme en éthique, il y a un danger, ainsi qu'une gloire, à être subtil. L'aristocratie isole et l'isolement apporte sa propre récompense."
— Charles Baudelaire
Simplified Meaning:
Using fancy words or ideas can be risky because it can make you seem special but also lonely. Being different sets you apart and that loneliness has its own impact.
