Quote by G. C. (Georg Christoph) Lichtenb
To do the opposite of something is also a form of imitation, namely an imitation of its opposite.
Summary
This quote suggests that when we intentionally do something opposite to what is expected, we are still imitating the concept of opposition itself. It implies that the act of going against the norm or doing the opposite is not original but still a form of imitation. Whether we conform or rebel against something, we are imitating the notion of being in opposition. Thus, the quote highlights the idea that even acts of opposition are not entirely unique, as they stem from an imitation of the contrasting concept.
