Answer:

"to grasp the native's point of view, his relation to life, to realize his vision of his world"

Explanation:

Bronisław Kasper Malinowski (1884 – 1942) was an anthropologist whose writings in his field made major impact on the discipline of anthropology.

The statement, "to grasp the native's point of view, his relation to life, to realize his vision of his world" is an excerpt from his work, Argonauts of the Western Pacific, Dutton 1961 edition, p. 25. This quote from Malinowski tried to explain the anthropologist's view of other culture and how the anthropologist should approach it.
