"شهرت دنیوی تنها نفسی از باد است که اکنون به این سو می‌وزد و سپس به آن سو و همانطور که جهتش تغییر می‌کند نامش را تغییر می‌دهد"

Dante Alighieri

Simplified Meaning:

Being famous is like the wind – it can change quickly and move in different directions. Today, everyone might talk about one person, but tomorrow, they'll be talking about someone else. Fame doesn't last because it depends on people's opinions, which can change easily. For example, a popular singer could be loved by everyone today, but if they do something people don’t like, they could lose their fans overnight. Therefore, it's important not to base your self-worth on fame. Instead, focus on what truly matters, like being kind and doing good work, because these things have lasting value.
