"La virtud es la verdadera nobleza."
— Miguel de Cervantes

Simplified Meaning:
Being a good person is more important than having a fancy title or lots of money. Imagine two people: one is a king but is mean and selfish, while the other is a simple farmer who is kind and helps others. Even though the king has power and wealth, the farmer is truly noble because of his goodness. True greatness comes from how we treat others and the choices we make, not from our social status or riches. Someone can apply this by focusing on being honest, kind, and helpful, rather than just trying to get ahead in life or earn praise. This way, they will earn genuine respect and make a positive impact on the world.
