“The tendency to socialize is primitive and for this reason progress finds a degree of acceptance on all sides and is not met with as much opposition as formerly.”
— Maria Montessori
Simplified Meaning:
People naturally like to be around others and make connections. This social instinct has been part of humans for a long time. Because of this, new ideas and changes in society become easier for people to accept. In the past, people might have been more resistant to change because it can be scary or unfamiliar. Nowadays, our love for being social helps us share and understand new ideas, making them less threatening. For example, when smartphones were first introduced, many people were unsure about them. But because they allowed us to communicate more easily, they quickly became popular and widely accepted. In our lives, being open to interacting with others and sharing ideas can help us embrace new changes and improvements more smoothly.
