This quote by Anthony Burgess recommends that all beliefs and concepts, no matter how commonly accepted, will ultimately end up being outdated and replaced by new ones. This is due to the fact that the world is continuously altering and developing, and what was as soon as accepted as reality might no longer be relevant. This quote encourages us to be open-minded and to be happy to accept originalities and perspectives, even if they oppose our own. It likewise acts as a reminder that no matter how strongly we may think in something, it may not always be the ideal response. We need to be willing to question our beliefs and be open to new ideas, as this is the only way to truly advance.

"Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under trees on a summer's day, listening to the murmur of the water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time"
"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character"
