Don't look closely at the paintwork, where you will see evidence of rust having been painted over ... and so on. Why if you look too closely with an expert eye you may even be able to detect that this vehicle has been welded together from scrap sections of several car-wrecks. Don't do that! Instead, just stand back and see what a lovely impressive vehicle it is. And pay the salesman what he asks - which is a rather unusual deal in which you have to pay him 10% of your gross income for life.
Yeah, I think this is pretty well what he's trying to say for his third attempt to make his own beliefs beyond criticism.
My mom was an artist. One time, when she was little, she went outside to sit on the steps and sketch a pile of junk. Her mother asked her what she was drawing, and when she explained, her mother got bent out of shape. What a stupid thing to sketch. After she finished, however, her mother was impressed with how interesting the picture turned out. Pain and imperfection are central to great art. How much better, when we step back with our "viewfinder," if the car is a rusty piece of junk, rather than the car of our dreams? How much better, when we step back and look at history with our viewfinder, that MMM happened so that Brigham would be a complex and interesting character?
