"Seul le vrai va à contre-courant des habitudes placides"
— Martin Heidegger

Simplified Meaning:
When someone gets used to doing things a certain way, they might not like changes or new ideas. However, real and valuable things often challenge our usual routines and make us think differently. For example, when scientists first said the Earth goes around the sun, many people didn’t believe them because it went against what they’d always thought. Even though it was hard to accept, it turned out to be true and important. In our own lives, if a new idea feels uncomfortable, it might actually be worth exploring because it can help us grow or see things in a new light. So, it's a good idea to stay open to things that shake up our everyday habits, because they might lead to something great.
