You always need one more light positively to identify another.

Doing like 'the others' 48 IX A I32 - S. Kierkegaard.
What to say here?
By doing like 'the others', you can be wise as well as respectful person, from 'other's angle'.
By doing not like 'the others', you may never can be wise at your lifetime, from 'other's angle'.
And also remember, we are living in a society, so other's angle could be an important parameter in our life.
So with reference to all those things that we know, at least we could accept that doing like 'the others' is much easier than doing not 'like others'.
