δεν είναι η απουσία διαφορών, αλλά ο τρόπος που...
This contrastive pattern is useful when you want to redefine an idea by opposing two parts: not the absence of a problem, but the way people deal with it. It is common in reflective and argumentative writing. Example: «Η επιτυχία δεν είναι η απουσία λαθών, αλλά ο τρόπος που τα διορθώνουμε.» = “Success is not the absence of mistakes, but the way we correct them.” It can be reused with many abstract nouns, especially when you want to shift attention from a result to a process.
Η επιτυχία δεν είναι η απουσία λαθών, αλλά ο τρόπος που τα διορθώνουμε.
Success is not the absence of mistakes, but the way we correct them.
