“The purpose of a writer is to keep civilization from destroying itself”
— Albert Camus

Simplified Meaning:
Writers have a special job. They help people understand and think about important issues. When writers create books, articles, or stories, they make people aware of problems like injustice, greed, or violence. For example, when a writer talks about how pollution harms the planet, readers learn and start caring more about the environment. Think of it this way: if no one ever wrote about the bad effects of plastic waste, people might never realize they need to recycle. By sharing these important messages, writers encourage people to act in ways that can protect our world and make life better. Everyone reading and learning from these writings can make smarter choices that help rather than harm society.
