About this Quote

This quote by Simon Travaglia talks to the difficulty of making an intelligent statement in a world where individuals often misinterpret or misconstrue what is stated. It recommends that when someone makes an intelligent declaration, some individuals may believe that it is not an isolated event, however rather indicative of a larger pattern of intelligence. This can be viewed as a criticism of the tendency to judge individuals based on a single declaration, instead of taking into account the full context of their words and actions. It also speaks with the difficulty of making a smart statement in a world where people typically misinterpret or misconstrue what is said. In other words, it is difficult to make an intelligent declaration without it being gotten of context or misinterpreted. Eventually, this quote talks to the value of understanding the complete context of a statement prior to making assumptions about the speaker.
