About This Quote

The mark of your ignorance is the depth of your belief in injustice and tragedy. What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the master calls a butterfly. The caterpillar’s point of view is limited. It thinks about what it can see, not what it can’t.

Meanwhile, the butterfly is free to soar above. It sees all things as they are, without bias or prejudice. Before you choose a side or a conclusion, look at both sides.

You might be surprised by what you find on the other side.
