About This Quote
The common assumption that everyone is the same is a dangerous one. Being different from others is not an insult or a large weakness. On the contrary, it makes you unique and more interesting than those who are the same as you. If everyone was the same, we wouldn’t be able to learn from one another. But, this isn’t necessarily a bad thing: we can all learn from each other and we can then apply that knowledge to our own lives and to our own situations.
