I think that's an excellent quote but on the other hand, I can't help wondering what's wrong with following in the footsteps of the wise if they actually are wise and if one actually wants wisdom?

When I become wise myself, I will only want people to follow in my footsteps if it will lead them to wisdom also.

Wouldn't it be sad, if one actually was wise and one could see the simple path to the same state, and then saw that people because of their egos, insisted on blazing their own personal trails to wisdom but ended up at a place of complacent, self-deluded stupidity instead?

Fuck I'm deep! In fact....oooh I feel it...yes...YEEEES...I'm wise!

Quick! Everyone follow me!
