I admire two types of people a lot. The first type is those who transform seemingly boring stuff into fascinating one, like historians who thread trivial facts together to tell stories full of life. The second type is those who exercise tremendous diligence to filter out all the interesting elements in things and present them in dullness, like the language course founders who propose to teach a living language as a dead language like Ancient Greek in six weeks.
The former group inspires people to find enjoyment and excitement out of boredom, and lead people appreciate the abundant colours and flavours of life even amidst challenges. The latter one works oppositely. The former one edifies people's innovation and anticipation; while the latter one sharpens people's patience and endurance by generating insipidity in enormous effort. They contribute to the world in different, yet equally awesome ways.
