Description
📖 The Story Behind the Quote
- Origin: This proverb has deep roots in Japanese culture, where it’s often used to describe the pressure to conform. In society, those who “stick out” — innovators, rebels, visionaries — are often targeted, ridiculed, or silenced.
- Why it matters: From Einstein to Nikola Tesla to Steve Jobs, history shows us that “the weirdos” are often the ones who reshape the world.
- Life Application: This quote applies in school, at work, or in social circles — any environment where conformity is prized. It challenges you to embrace your difference rather than fear it.
