Thanks for posting. I have found a terrific book I would like to recommend. The Master Key System which has made a powerful positive impact in my life. "To be great is to be misunderstood". Very beautiful!

i dont know that he is saying being misunderstood is a beautiful thing, but more that it is an inescapable thing, if you choose to follow your own mind, Because you will eventually find your thoughts opposed to the fashionable outlook. But it takes conviction to know you are right when the world knows otherwise.

@knowledge0934 you might be correct. I'll have to re-ponder it. I love your last line. "it takes conviction to know you are right when the world knows otherwise." it also takes courage to authentically entertain the notion that our own view of reality could be completely wrong.
