The Thinker

"The thinker is pre-eminently a person who sees where others do not. The novelty of what he says, it's character a sort of revelation, the charm that attaches to it, all comes from the fact that he sees. He seems to be head and shoulders above the crowd, or to be walking on the ridgeway while others trudge at the bottom. Independence is the word that describes the moral aspect of this capacity for vision." Ernest Dimnet
