Summary

This quote suggests that true courage is demonstrated when we find ourselves in a position where our beliefs or values clash with the majority. Standing up for what we believe in, even if it means facing resistance or criticism, is a testament to our courage. On the other hand, the quote also highlights the importance of tolerance when we are part of the majority. It is easy to be complacent and overlook the perspectives of those who disagree with us, but true tolerance means respecting and considering diverse opinions even when they differ from our own.
