If everyone is thinking alike, then no one is thinking.

Summary

This quote suggests that when individuals think alike and share the same opinions or ideas, there is a lack of genuine critical thinking. It implies that true thinking involves independent and individualistic thought processes. When everyone's perspective aligns completely, it may indicate a conformity or lack of originality, and there is little room for creativity or unique insights. To truly promote progress and innovation, it is essential to encourage diverse perspectives and encourage independent thinking.
