Which statement best expresses Emerson’s point-of-view in the sentence?

klasskru [66]

None of the above options show what Emerson meant by the sentence, as the sentence states that an individual, to be a significant man, should be outside the mainstream of thought, being a nonconformist.

We can arrive at this answer because:

Emerson's sentence is intended to show how people cannot conform to the pattern of thinking established by society.

This pattern take away the individuality of people and make all of them conform to a reality that is not satisfactory, but within what is said to be correct.

In this case, Emerson reinforces the idea that men should be non-conforming and stay out of the mainstream.

This question is incomplete, but it is possible to find a similar question that shows the sentence we are discussing.
