It is said that each great work has to pass through these stages - ridicule, opposition, and then acceptance. “To Be Great is to Be Misunderstood.” Ralph Waldo Emerson has coined this phrase in his essay, “Self Reliance.” The author continues saying, “Pythagoras was misunderstood, and Socrates, and Jesus, and Luther, and Copernicus, and Galileo, and Newton, and every pure and wise spirit that ever took flesh.”
