| The Stone Breakers (1850) Gustave Courbet |
"[Levin] was continually watching and getting to know people of all sorts, and among them peasants, whom he regarded as good and interesting people, and he was continually observing new points in them, altering his former views of them and forming new ones."
--Anna Karenina, Leo Tolstoy
I like this idea of continuous learning, continuous evolution of personal knowledge and understanding. Not being afraid to recognize what you thought was correct yesterday was actually wrong and you have replaced it with an improved understanding today. It takes humility to admit to that at times but its a liberating experience when it happens.
