When you are an outcast, even a tossed stone can be cherished.

Summary

This quote suggests that when someone feels like an outcast or isolated from others, any form of attention or acknowledgement, even if negative, can be welcomed and valued. It implies that the desperation for connection and recognition may override the desire for positive attention, as even small moments of acknowledgement, however controversial or unfavorable, can be seen as meaningful to someone who often feels excluded or ignored by society.
