-- Seneca
Nature attains perfection, but a man never does. There is a perfect ant, a perfect bee, but man is perpetually unfinished. He is both an unfinished animal and an unfinished man.

Moreover, the incurable unfinishedness keeps man perpetually immature, perpetually capable of learning and growth.
-- Eric Hoffer
