"Les gens exigent la liberté d'expression comme compensation pour la liberté de pensée qu'ils utilisent rarement."
— Soren Kierkegaard

Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, people strongly want the right to say whatever they want but don't actually use their ability to think deeply about things. It's like having a really nice kitchen but never cooking anything in it. For example, some people might loudly share their opinions on social media without really understanding the topic or considering different perspectives. Just like it's important to use your kitchen to make good meals, it's important to think carefully before you speak. If you really think about issues from all sides, your speech will be more meaningful and helpful. So, instead of just demanding the right to talk, make sure you're also thinking deeply and wisely about what you say.
