"在世界上最高的王座上,我们仍然只是坐在自己的屁股上。"
— Michel de Montaigne
Simplified Meaning:
No matter how important or powerful a person becomes, they are still just a regular human being like everyone else. Even if someone becomes the president of a country or a top business leader, they have the same basic needs and feelings as anyone else. For example, think about a famous movie star. They may have millions of fans and great success, but they still get tired, hungry, and need friends and family just like everyone else. They have good days and bad days. This quote reminds us not to look at others, even those in high positions, as being better or different from ourselves. In our own lives, this means that we should treat everybody equally and remember that titles and positions do not define someone's true worth. It's important to stay humble and recognize that, at our core, we are all the same. This perspective helps us respect others and also not feel less important than anyone, no matter their status.
