"تعریف کردن یعنی محدود کردن"
— Oscar Wilde

Simplified Meaning:
When you set a clear boundary or description for something, you also restrict it. Think about a person with many talents; if you only call them a 'painter,' people might ignore that they also write and play music. By labeling them with just one word, you put them in a box and overlook their other abilities. This can happen in many areas of life. For instance, in school, if a student is only seen as 'the athlete,' their other skills, like being good at math, may be missed. To get the full picture of someone or something, it’s important not to narrow down their identity to one label. We should see and appreciate the different aspects that make up who they are.
