quote

"Since we cannot change reality, let us change the eyes which we see reality." -N. Kazantzaki

 
I find this quote to be very relatable and relevant to almost everyone who reads it by the wording. It doesn't just say to change the way you see reality, but by changing the wording to say "let us change the eyes.." the quote is not only directed to the reader but everyone in society. Though it is pretty straight forward, the quote tells us that there is nothing that can be done to change reality so we need to be more optimistic and see things differently in order to be content. I agree with this statement and I appreciate the directness behind the author's words.
