About this Quote

In this quote, Paul McCartney is reflecting on his previous beliefs and how they have altered over time. He utilized to believe that anybody who did something uncommon or unconventional was weird or abnormal. However, as he has actually grown and gained more life experience, he has come to understand that it is really individuals who identify others as odd that are the ones who are genuinely odd. McCartney is recommending that those who evaluate and slam others for being different are the ones who are closed-minded and lacking in understanding and acceptance. He encourages us to welcome our individuality and not hesitate to be various, as it is frequently the most fascinating and innovative individuals who are labeled as "strange.".
