Nothing is more dangerous than an idea, when you only have one idea (Alain)

He did not have other ideas

This is a quote that is straight forward and to my opinion . . . true. Not all ideas can be dangerous, but having one idea only is more dangerous. I think for some of us an idea may not even be that dangerous, some of us are lucky enough to only need one idea.

By having an idea, usually entails that you are planning to do something, and with that a natural chain of thoughts (more ideas) fall into place. If there are no other ideas that fall into place, things could be dangerous (as we could not really have a plan).

Nothing is more dangerous than an idea, when you only have one idea because no matter how awesome you are you still need a back-up plan (ideas). With at least 3 other ideas our sole idea would no longer be dangerous.
