The three figures represent different viewpoints: The figure on the left, labeled "Optimist," has a happy expression and text next to it that says "The glass is half-full." The figure in the middle, labeled "Pessimist," has a sad expression and text next to it that says "The glass is half-empty." The figure on the right, labeled "Archaeologist," has a hat and a slightly amused expression. The text next to it states "The glass is ritual."
It's ritual!
