“If you look for perfection, you'll never be content”
— Leo Tolstoy

Simplified Meaning:
Always chasing after perfection means you'll never be satisfied. Picture this: if you're trying to bake the ideal cake, but you keep finding small flaws, you'll never enjoy the delicious cake you made. Imperfections are part of life, and they make things unique and interesting. In history, take inventors like Thomas Edison. If he had waited for the perfect light bulb, he might've never finished it. So, instead of being too focused on making things perfect, appreciate the effort and the process. This way, you can feel happier and more content with what you achieve.
