Oblivion is the rule and fame the exception, of humanity.

Summary

This quote suggests that the norm for humanity is to be forgotten or overlooked, with their lives and actions being easily forgotten over time. It implies that only a few individuals, those who achieve fame or recognition, can transcend this rule and be remembered by others for their accomplishments or influence. In this view, oblivion is the default state for most people, while fame stands out as a rare deviation from this rule.
