Summary

This quote suggests that individuals who enter someone else's mind without prior knowledge or understanding are akin to tenants occupying an empty apartment. Without bringing their own thoughts, experiences, or ideas, they rely solely on what they find within that person's mind. This highlights the lack of originality and depth in their thinking, as they are merely borrowing others' perspectives rather than forming their own. It emphasizes the importance of independent thinking and bringing something unique to any conversation or situation.
