What is your interpretation of this quote by henry david thoreau?
"What everybody echoes or in silence passes by as true today, may turn out to be falsehood tomorrow, mere smoke of opinion, which some had trusted for a cloud that would sprinkle fertilizing rain on their fields."
I would think Thoreau meant that you can't trust the opinions or statements of others, simply because truth itself isn't always dependable.
Or that one cannot be gullible enough to lend an eager ear to anyone willing to speak of rumors or false fact.
What would you say henry thoreau meant?
I think it means that "hope springs eternal in the human breast" and faced with hopeful circumstances, we pounce on certain conclusions as true, and this belief is echoed by everyone else because they also are dazzled with hope and want it to be the truth. We jump aboard without thought, without evidence, simply because we are all so anxious and hopeful. Then when that hope turns out to be a lie, we learn that though we had hoped for a bountiful future, we have simply another disappointment, another letdown.
I think it is a lesson on the benefits of independent thought.
