"私は教皇と同じくらいの権威を持っていますがそれを信じる人はそんなに多くありません"
— George Carlin

Simplified Meaning:
The quote means that someone's power or influence depends a lot on how many people trust or believe in them. It suggests that even if someone has the same capability or knowledge as an important figure like the Pope, what really matters is whether others recognize and support that authority. For example, a teacher might be very wise and know a lot about their subject, but if the students don't believe in the teacher's authority, they may not listen or learn from them. This shows how belief from others can make a big difference. If you want your ideas to have an impact, it's important to gain trust and support, not just have the right ideas or skills.
