If you become too readily available to people, they begin to take you for granted; pull away, and they will clamor for you. It's a subconscious thing our society has created in the minds of the masses. This is why most of the "greats" didn't become recognized until after their deaths. If you're overlooked, rejoice, maybe your one of the future greats. Dara Reidyr
About This Quote

This quote says that if you become too readily available to people, they begin to take you for granted. Pull away, and they will clamor for you. This is a great quote because it shows the importance of being able to prioritize yourself. It's easy to get caught up in the excitement of meeting new people and going out with them every night, but if you don't make time for yourself, you risk losing your own identity.

And that's not necessarily a bad thing. In fact, I think that's why this quote is so well known. It makes us realize that we have to take care of ourselves if we want to be able to reach our full potential as a person.
