<p>**Prompt: Do we benefit from learning about the flaws of people we admire and respect? **</p>
<p>Through the identification of faults in societys most revered persons, individuals are able to develop intellectually and socially. Several examples from history and classic literature clearly reflect these benefits within flaw identification.</p>
<p>In the classic novel To Kill a Mockingbird, the protagonist, Edwardo Culleth, greatly admires the top bird, John Sadison, and endeavors to reach the magnitude of his social status. John Sadison, the top bird, is exalted by everyone within the nest, being acknowledged as the most sagacious entity in their vicinity. At first, Edwardo was one of the many impregnated with awe and fascination of Johns intellectual superiority. However, Edwardo soon finds imperfection in Johns realm of thought, and realizes that John himself is not as perfect as he seems. This unforeseen epiphany in the novel sparks a chain reaction in Edwardo, compelling him to become a bird which has the cerebral qualities that John lacks. Eventually, Edward develops into superior bird with a sagacity that is unmatched, and becomes the top bird. Such a feat was contributed entirely to Edwardos learning of flaws within John Sadison. Therefore, the events in To Kill a Mockingbird prove that descrying imperfection an exalted individual facilitates intellectual development. </p>
<p>Throughout the industrial 1800s, Great Britains royal emperor Lelouch Lamperoona was lauded by millions, being praised as the most munificent and righteously scrupulous monarch that had ever existed in their time. Although Lamperoonas kindness and generosity was seen by many as genuine and forgiving, few dared to speak out against the royal monarch in fear of prosecution and other methods of incarceration which came with
British emperors. One of these few speakers was the indomitable Kallen Stockfield. Kallen was a political activist who found one ostensible flaw in Lelouch’s methods of ruling: he was simply too kind. She realized that Lelouch’s amiable establishment of prestigious homes for the homeless, disinvasion of the inferior New England, and the creation of rehabilition camps for the psychologically ill, were all actions that were slowing the progress of imperial Britain. At first, she was rather reluctant in informing these flaws to Lelouch because of the threat of prosecution, but the fear did not last long. In the three days proceeding this realization, Kallen had successfully called a quick and hasty congregation with His majesty. She explicitly stated to Lelouch the faults of his ruling, and suggested methods in which he could make the nation a better one. In ascertaining the flaws of Lelouch’s rule, improved herself socially by speaking out against the emperor, an action unheard of the in 1800s.
Thus, the identification of faults in respected persons will develop one socially. </p>
<p>After carefully analyzing To Kill a Mockingbird and Lelouch Lamperoona’s rule*, it can be concluded that identification of a respected individual’s flaws can only confer social and intellectual development in an individual. Indeed, this learning of imperfection, there is no stimulus to deveop the indvidual. The learning of one’s imperfection is indubitably necessary in order for an individual to develop socially and intellectually.</p>
