प्रश्न
‘The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeing new places but in seeing with new eyes.’ Marcel Proust. Justify with the help of the text.
उत्तर
This statement by Marcel Proust implies that during travel, it’s not the place that matters as much as the traveller’s perspective in seeing the new place. In order to really discover something, it is more important to see a single place from a fresh perspective than to see a number of new places. The statement also goes on to suggest that a traveller’s outlook of the native people of the new place also enables him/her to mould the perspective of the local people.
