The man who listens to Reason is lost: Reason enslaves all

Summary

This quote suggests that relying too much on reason can be detrimental. It implies that those who are overly logical and rational may become enslaved by reason, losing their ability to think independently and creatively. The quote suggests that individuals with weak minds become passive followers of reason instead of assertive critical thinkers. Therefore, it is advising against blindly following reason and encourages people to cultivate their own intellectual strength and freedom.
