Summary
This quote suggests that intellectuals and philosophers lay the groundwork for social or political change through their deep analysis and critical thinking. They generate ideas, theories, and concepts that challenge the existing order. However, it is the actions of activists, rebels, or revolutionaries (the "bandits") that bring about the actual changes. While thinkers may have the ideas, it is the practical implementation by those who are unafraid to take risks and challenge authority that ultimately leads to revolutionary transformations in society.
