“The spread of civilization may be likened to a fire; first, a feeble spark, next a flickering flame, then a mighty blaze, ever increasing in speed and power”

Nikola Tesla

Simplified Meaning:

Civilization starts small, like a tiny spark from a fire. At first, it's weak and barely noticeable. But as people share ideas and work together, it grows stronger, like a small flame. Over time, more and more people join in, and this flame turns into a huge fire that keeps spreading faster and becomes more powerful. Imagine the invention of the internet: it started as a simple idea in the 1960s. In the beginning, only a few people used and understood it. Then, in the '90s, more people started using it, and it grew more common. Now, it's everywhere, changing how we live, work, and connect with each other. Just like this, any new idea or progress in society starts small but can grow into something big and influential. When you have a good idea or start something new, remember it may begin small, but with time and effort, it can turn into something great.
