“In literature as in ethics, there is danger, as well as glory, in being subtle. Aristocracy isolates - and isolation brings its own reward”
— 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.
