In every work of genius we recognize our own rejected thoughts: they come back to us with a certain alienated majesty. Great works of art have no more affecting lesson for us than this. They teach us to abide by our spontaneous impression with good-humored inflexibility then most when the whole cry of voices is on the other side. Else, to-morrow a stranger will say with masterly good sense precisely what we have thought and felt all the time, and we shall be forced to take with shame our own opinion from another. In this excerpt from "Self-Reliance," what idea does Emerson further develop?

Imitation is the lack of trust in oneself.
People have little appreciation of the classics.
Great work is a source of peacefulness.
Opinions are a form of religion.

Opinions are a form of religion

Explanation:

According to the excerpt from "Self Reliance", Ralph Waldo Emerson describes each person as rejecting one genius thought or idea which was later acted upon my someone else and comes back to haunt the person. He is also of the opinion that when that happens, we would be forced to take our own opinions from someone else, in shame.

The idea that Emerson develops further from this excerpt is that opinions are a form of religion.

i go to the store and buy some cheese,suddenly there was akward silence.   out of no where comes a ninja, and he takes an apple, and chokes the cashier, until he passes out.   the disapeared in a puff of smoke.   the cashier went to the doctor, and everything was fine again.   they all lived happily ever after without anymore ninjas.

the end

go to buy cheese= exposition

akaward silence= rising action

ninja chokes the cashier= climax

cashier goes to the doctor= falling action

they live happily ever after= resolution

i think the answer is restaurants offering only dinner
