Can you maybe explain what the following quote from Marcus Aurelius exactly means?
“The object of life is not to be
on the side of the majority,
but to escape finding oneself in
the ranks of the insane.”
Is it possible to make it more simple?
I get the two separate statements, but have difficulty with their meaning as a comparison (which I believe it is intended).
Thanks in advance!
