While this may be a positive trait in some situations, it can be dangerous. I may learn more from failures, but I cannot allow myself to become

In Robert Louis Stevenson’s novella, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, doors represent both barriers and secrecy. Dr. Jekyll has barriers around his secret life, he tries to block people out so they will not discover his secrets. Secrecy is an important theme in the novel, and doors symbolize keeping these secrets. Doors can symbolize both an opportunity and a barrier.
