What is the main difference in viewpoint described in the passage about Douglass learning to read?
That which to him was a great evil, to be carefully
shunned, was to me a great good, to be diligently sought;
and the argument which he so warmly urged, against my
learning to read, only served to inspire me with a desire
and determination to learn. In learning to read, I owe

to the kindly aid of my mistress. I acknowledge the
benefit of both.
