"Le plus grand défi pour tout penseur est de formuler le problème de manière à permettre une solution."

Bertrand Russell

Simplified Meaning:

When you face a problem, it can sometimes be hard to solve because the way you describe or understand the problem might not be clear. Think of it like trying to find a missing object in a messy room. If you don't clearly describe what you are looking for or where you last saw it, it becomes very difficult to find it. For example, if you have a headache and just say, "I don't feel good," it’s hard for others to help you. But if you say, "I have a headache because I didn't drink enough water today," then it's easier to find a solution like drinking water or resting. This idea teaches us that before we try to fix a problem, we need to take the time to clearly understand and explain what the problem is. By doing this, we make it easier to find the right solution. This advice can be used in many areas of life, such as work, relationships, and personal challenges. Always try to define your problem clearly, and you'll find it much easier to solve.
