Summary

This quote is a reflection on personal responsibility and the consequences of blindly following others' advice without questioning or considering one's own desires and passions. It suggests that if an individual allows themselves to live a dull and unhappy life solely because they heeded others' instructions on how to live and make choices, then they are accountable for their own unhappiness. It emphasizes the importance of authenticity, self-discovery, and making independent decisions that align with one's own values and aspirations.
