About this Quote

This quote by Mark Twain speaks to the problem of presenting originalities. It recommends that when someone has a new idea, they are often viewed as a "crank" or an eccentric person. This is because new ideas are typically met suspicion and doubt. Individuals might be hesitant to accept something that is unknown or various. However, if the idea succeeds, it can be viewed as innovative and the person who proposed it can be seen as a visionary. This quote is a pointer that it takes courage to present originalities and that it is essential to be available to new ideas, even if they appear unusual in the beginning.
