Summary

This quote emphasizes that labels, which are typically used to categorize and simplify things, should not be applied to people. It suggests that individuals should not be defined or restricted based on societal labels, such as race, gender, or social status. Instead, people should be embraced for their unique qualities and experiences, recognizing that everyone is complex and multifaceted, and cannot be simply reduced to a label. It challenges us to move beyond limited perceptions and preconceived notions about others and embrace their individuality.
