Quote by Marcel Proust

The only real voyage of discovery consists not in seeing new landscapes, but in having new eyes, in seeing the universe with the eyes of another, of hundreds of others, in seeing the hundreds of universes that each of them sees.

The only real voyage of discovery consists not in seeing new

Summary

This quote highlights that true discovery is not simply about physically exploring new places, but about nurturing empathy and understanding. It emphasizes the importance of embracing different perspectives and seeing the world through the eyes of others. By doing so, we can gain a deeper appreciation for the diverse experiences and countless possibilities that exist within the multitude of individuals and their unique perceptions of the universe. True exploration, therefore, lies in the discovery of the various universes that reside within each person's unique viewpoint.
