“The important work of moving the world forward does not wait to be done by perfect men.”
— George Eliot

Simplified Meaning:
We can't wait for perfect people to step up and make things better. Imagine if we only let great singers join a choir. We would never hear the beautiful music a group of ordinary, but passionate, people can create together. Similarly, progress and change happen because regular people decide to take action, even if they have their flaws and make mistakes. For example, many social movements throughout history were driven by individuals who weren’t perfect, but they still made a huge impact. Instead of waiting around for ideal conditions or the "right" person, we should all try to contribute in our own ways. Everyone can help move the world forward, no matter their imperfections.
