Reply To: The Searcher: What are your thoughts on this quote?

My interpretation was that this was a statement about a tendency for some to be followers. That some who are followers adapt language or echo other people’s words and present them as statements of their own beliefs and understanding of why certain words were used, when in reality, the follower doesn’t really understand nor believe. The “not doing anything useful” would confirm that the follower’s words were not confirmed by their actions. I think the statement is about how many people may offer empty words without sincere belief behind their words, and the noise that comes about from trying to find the right words, while all the while not full understanding, believing or behaving in accordance with the words they use.
