Summary

This quote emphasizes the bravery and inner strength required to embrace one's true self and authentic identity, especially in a world that often pressures individuals to conform to societal norms and expectations. Growing up involves numerous challenges and stages of self-discovery, but it is through this process that people have the opportunity to shed the faÃ§ades and expectations placed upon them, and instead embrace their true being. It takes courage to break free from conformity, defy expectations, and embark on a personal journey to realize one's authentic self.

The Great Man... is colder, harder, less hesitating, and wit

The Great Man... is colder, harder, less hesitating, and without fear of 'opinion'; he lacks the virtues that accompany respect and 'respectability,' and altogether everything that is the 'virtue of the herd.' If he cannot lead, he goes alone... He knows he is incommunicable: he finds it tasteless to be familiar... When not speaking to himself, he wears a mask. There is a solitude within him that is inaccessible to praise or blame.

They are the most venerable kind of man: that does not preclude their being the most cheerful and the kindliest.
