means that the world is in the eye of the beholder; it all depends on how you look at things; all
people look at things from a
different perspective and have differing opinions or views about someone,
something, etc.
Everything is quantifiable in terms of individual perception.
To him, the new house is beautiful and grandiose in appearance; to me, it's
ugly and
pretentious. It's all relative, then, isn't it?
You think you're poor? Then take a look at the skid row bums living in the sewers
downtown. Everything is relative.
