Excellence

I think we all respect excellence, in one form or another, although most of us would laugh if it were suggested we aspire to it in our own lives. However,I suspect we all, at least to some extent, think we do some, or even one, thing better than most people.

What is it which attracts us to a painting which we believe that no one, other than the artist could ever have painted so well. Is it because we believe that somewhere absolute perfection lies?

Why is it that people want to "make something of themselves"?
