“There are neither good nor bad subjects From the point of view of pure Art you could almost establish it as an axiom that there is no such thing as a subject inferior in itself or without possibilities”
— Gustave Flaubert

Simplified Meaning:
Everything can be beautiful and meaningful when seen through the lens of true art. Imagine an artist painting a garbage dump. To most people, it looks ugly and useless. However, the artist sees the colors, the shapes, and the stories behind each discarded item. By painting it, the artist shows us a new perspective, making us notice beauty where we didn’t before. This idea isn't just about art; it’s about life, too. A situation might seem terrible or boring at first, but with the right mindset, you can find something positive or interesting in it. So, in life, try to look beyond the surface and discover the hidden value in every person, experience, or thing.
