"And yet to think it better, my good friend, that my lyre should be discordant and out of tune, and any chorus I might sing, and that the majority of humankind should disagree with and oppose me, rather than I, who am but one man, should be out of tune with and contradict myself." What do these words from Socrates express?
If you can't beat 'em, join 'em
Even in the face of immense social pressure, it's best to be sincere, remain in accord with the truth within you
It doesn't matter what you do or how you live life, there is no truth
It's better to be popular and well thought of by the majority than be true to yourself
