Summary

This quote suggests that men are not naturally meant to function flawlessly like machines or tools, meticulously carrying out tasks with utmost precision. It implies that humans are fallible beings and shouldn't strive for perfection in every action they undertake. Rather, it is a reminder that imperfections and human errors are part of our nature and should be accepted as such. This perspective emphasizes the importance of embracing our human limitations and focusing on growth and progress rather than fixating on achieving absolute perfection.

And in that freedom flowers all that is good and all that is beautiful.

My theory on life is that life is beautiful. Life doesn't change. You have a day, and a night, and a month, and a year. We people change - we can be miserable or we can be happy. It's what you make of your life.
