You're right, i don't have common sense. I don't want to believe what every one else believes. I have my own thoughts, things that weren't taught to me or things that I didn't read in a book. I learn from experience - you, you are afraid to experience anything and so you will always have your common sense and only your common sense.
In the quote, the speaker acknowledges a lack of conventional wisdom but values their unique perspective. They emphasize the importance of independent thought and learning from personal experiences rather than simply accepting commonly held beliefs or textbook knowledge. This underscores a deeper understanding gained through living rather than relying solely on traditional forms of education.
The speaker contrasts their own approach to understanding the world with that of another individual who seems hesitant to venture beyond the familiar. They suggest that fear of new experiences leads to a reliance on common sense, which can limit one's ability to fully engage with life's complexities. This highlights a key theme of the book: the value of embracing life's uncertainties and learning through personal journeys.
