Simplified Meaning:

It means that while having great ideas and being really smart is uncommon, having the bravery to take action and stand up for what you believe in is even less common. For example, consider the many people who have fantastic ideas for businesses or creating new things. Many people might think of an inventive product or solution to a problem, but only a few actually take the courageous steps needed to turn that idea into reality. Think about historical figures like Martin Luther King Jr. He had powerful and smart ideas about equality and justice. However, what truly set him apart was his courage to speak out and lead the civil rights movement despite facing great danger and opposition. In everyday life, imagine someone who sees bullying happening at school. Many students might understand that bullying is wrong and may even have ideas on how to stop it, but only a few will have the guts to step in and help the person being bullied. This tells us that we should not only value clever thinking but also strive to be brave enough to act on our good ideas and stand up for what's right.
