"Le comportement antisocial est un trait d'intelligence dans un monde plein de conformistes."
— Nikola Tesla

Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, when everyone else is just following the crowd without thinking carefully, the smartest people might choose to do things differently and not fit in. Imagine a classroom where everyone cheats on a test because it's the easiest thing to do, but one student studies hard and refuses to cheat. Though this student might seem weird or anti-social, they are actually showing their intelligence and willingness to stand up for what's right. They see the value in honesty and hard work, even if it means being different. In life, it's important to think for yourself and not just go along with what everyone else is doing, especially if it doesn't seem right or smart. This kind of behavior shows strong and intelligent character.
