Eraldo BanovacTo observe life as an inevitability and to observe the nuanced stratification of life are two completely different points of view on life.
About This Quote
When it comes to living, there are a lot of different ways one can view a situation. One can look at the world as a whole and see that there is a certain inevitability to life. In this case, life is controlled by forces beyond our control, from other people to the weather, so there isn’t much we can do other than live our lives to the best of our ability within these boundaries. Another way of looking at life is through the lens of individuals and how we each manipulate and use the world around us in order to further ourselves and our goals.
We can also look at life as a stratification system that has different classes and societies within it, and we can further break down these societal strata into racial and ethnic groups, economic classes, religious affiliations, and more. Life is something that we all experience in different ways; one way may be better than another; but you don’t have to take any one thing too seriously to enjoy your life.
