The first (but incorrect) answer to this quote was given as:
"I believe that this quote saying that the individual is a conformist and follows other's opinions. Rather than forming his own thoughts and ideas, he simply accepts other's ideolgies in an effort to fit in. This is the opposite to the quote "marches to the beat of his own drum" which says the individual is not a conformist and creates his own opinions and ideas."
However, the full quote is "If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away." The quote comes from 'Walden' by Henry David Thoreau. The quote actually means just the opposite of what the first person to answer this said. The individual is actually a nonconformist. He has chosen to go along a path different from his peers. Who is to say which direction is correct, just say that we all have our own paths and we should go where our hearts and minds guide us.

Please interpret this quote If a man does not keep pace with his companions perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer Let him step to the music which he hears however measured or far away?
To begin, you need to understand that the phrase "keep pace," which we now associate only with speed, would have meant something more along the lines of "keep rhythm" in today's usage, although speed might have been implied as well. The image of a group marching to the beat of a drum, whether this is a parade or a military unit, suggests conformity and orthodoxy. To "march to the beat of a different drummer" is simply to live in a way that is outside the norm. I take this quote to mean that if someone is eccentric or doesn't share your same values, goals, etc. then he or she simply has a different take on life, and that you should respect that person's views whether or not they are your own.ANSWER: People love their systems, and most people thrive in established systems, others don't. If you are not flourishing and prospering living your life the way every one else thinks you should be doing it, stop doing it that way, and march to the beat of your own drum.
What does this mean If a man does not keep pace with his companions perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer by Henry David Thoreau?
This quote by Henry David Thoreau suggests that some people may choose to follow a different path in life because they are unique individuals with their own beliefs and values. They may hear a different "drummer," or inner calling, that guides them in a different direction from their peers. Thoreau encourages embracing one's individuality and not feeling pressured to conform to societal norms.
