"完璧主義者には幸せは訪れない。"

Anton Chekhov

Simplified Meaning:

People who always aim for everything to be perfect often find it hard to feel happy. This happens because they focus too much on things going exactly as planned, which is almost impossible. For example, if a student insists on getting a perfect score on every test, they might end up feeling stressed or disappointed when they score a bit less, even if they did very well. It’s better to try your best and appreciate the good results, even if they aren’t perfect. By doing this, you can feel more satisfied and enjoy life more. Trying to be perfect all the time can make you miss out on the joy in things that are already good.
