— Friedrich Nietzsche

Simplified Meaning:
To have a lasting impact or be remembered forever, a person must go through many tough changes and challenges in life. Imagine a famous author who writes incredible books that people will read for generations. To reach that point, the author might face lots of rejection, criticism, and failures. Each setback feels like a small part of them "dies," but they must push through. This process of overcoming difficulties shapes them and their work, making it unforgettable. In everyday life, if someone wants to achieve something great, they need to be ready to face hardships and grow from them. These struggles make them stronger and help them leave a lasting legacy.
