The same fence that shuts others out shuts you in.

The same fence that shuts others out shuts you in.

Summary

This quote suggests that the barriers we create to separate ourselves from others not only keep others away but also confine us within their boundaries. By isolating ourselves and building walls, we inadvertently restrict our own growth and limit our connection with the world around us. It serves as a reminder that breaking down these barriers can lead to greater opportunities, understanding, and personal fulfillment.

The educated man pictures a horde of submen, wanting only a day's liberty to loot his house, burn his books, and set him to work minding a machine or sweeping out a lavatory. 'Anything,' he thinks, 'any injustice, sooner than let that mob loose.' He does not see that since there is no difference between the mass of rich and poor, there is no question of setting the mob loose. The mob is in fact loose now, and--in the shape of rich men--is using its power to set up enormous treadmills of boredom, such as 'smart' hotels.
