Summary

This quote suggests that constantly yielding to others and allowing their influence to shape one's beliefs and decisions will eventually lead to a lack of personal convictions. By always prioritizing others' opinions and perspectives above one's own, an individual risks losing their own moral compass and independent thought. It underscores the importance of maintaining one's own principles and standing up for what one believes in rather than blindly conforming to others' viewpoints.
