A VOICE IN THE DARK

Meaning

You’re a voice in the wilderness, or a voice crying in the wilderness, if you’re expressing an unpopular opinion or insight.

For example

  • When Galileo stated that the sun was the centre of the solar system, he was a voice crying in the wilderness. Most people thought he was crazy or evil, or possibly both.
  • Clara says petrol engines should be banned because of the damage they cause to the environment. She says most people laugh when she says this, and she feels like a voice in the wilderness.
