"هدف زندگی این نیست که در کنار اکثریت باشیم بلکه این است که از قرار گرفتن در صف دیوانگان فرار کنیم."
— Marcus Aurelius
Simplified Meaning:
The quote means that the goal in life shouldn't just be to follow what most people are doing, but to make sure you don't end up doing things that are really unwise or harmful. Think about it like this: if everyone around you started jumping off a cliff, you wouldn't join in just because everyone else is doing it. You'd stop and think for yourself. In history, there have been times when a lot of people believed in something crazy or harmful, like when many people thought the world was flat. Whoever questioned that belief was right, even if they were in the minority. In your own life, always try to make smart choices, even if they aren't popular. It's better to be one of the few doing the right thing than part of a big group doing something foolish.
