Summary

This quote suggests that individuals who have a knack for delivering clever and memorable quotes may face a challenge when it comes to being truly heard and understood.

Consequently, the profound ideas and perspectives they convey may be overlooked or not given the attention they deserve. It highlights the importance of actively listening and discerning beyond the allure of quotable expressions.
