Quote by G. C. (Georg Christoph) Lichtenb
Rational free spirits are the light brigade who go on ahead and reconnoiter the ground which the heavy brigade of the orthodox will eventually occupy.
Summary
This quote suggests that rational and independent individuals are like pioneers, exploring new ideas and concepts before they are accepted by mainstream or orthodox thinking. They are the ones venturing into uncharted territory, paving the way for others to eventually follow. These "light brigade" thinkers are often ahead of their time, challenging conventional beliefs and paving the way for progress and change. Ultimately, the ideas they introduce may gradually be embraced by the more conservative or orthodox thinkers, who take their cues from the pioneers.
