"如果你真的想成为一个真正解放的个体，除了抄袭古代大师之外，什么都不要复制。否则，你可能最好还是待在家里。"

Simplified Meaning:
Trying to be a truly unique and free person means you should avoid copying other people, except for learning from the greats of the past. Think of it like this: if you want to be a great artist, don't just mimic modern artists. Instead, study the techniques of classic masters like Leonardo da Vinci. They have stood the test of time and can teach you valuable lessons. But if you only copy what everyone else is doing right now, you won't really grow or stand out. So, if you aren’t using those timeless lessons, you might as well not bother trying to be different. Taking inspiration from masters can guide you, but copying your peers can hold you back.
