Summary

This quote suggests that a great man is distinguished from a person who is simply well-known and respected (an eminent one) by their willingness to serve society. A great man does not simply seek fame or power, but actively seeks to make a positive impact on others and contribute to the betterment of society. This implies humility, selflessness, and a genuine concern for the well-being of others, attributing true greatness to one's willingness to serve rather than their personal achievements or status.
