Who would wish to be among the commonplace crowd of the little famous -- who are each individually lost in a throng made up of themselves?

Summary

This quote highlights the desire to stand out and be distinct from the ordinary or mainstream. It emphasizes the reluctancy of being a part of a crowd filled with individuals who have achieved a certain level of fame or recognition, but who ultimately blend in with one another. It suggests that true recognition and fulfillment come from being an individual rather than being lost within a sea of familiar faces, even if they're known to others.
