Summary

This quote suggests that being original comes with its own set of challenges. It implies that it is easier to pursue originality foolishly, by embracing eccentricity or unconventional ideas without much thought or wisdom behind them. On the other hand, it requires more effort and thoughtfulness to be both original and wise. This implies making distinctive choices that are also informed and intelligent. It serves as a reminder to not let the desire for originality overpower the importance of wisdom and critical thinking.
