"保証を求めないでください。そして、どんな物事や人、機械、図書館に救いを求めないでください。自分自身を救うための努力をし、もし溺れたなら、少なくとも岸に向かっていたことを知って死んでください。"
— Ray Bradbury

Simplified Meaning:
When we rely too much on others to solve our problems or give us certainty, we might become disappointed. No single thing, person, or tool can provide all the answers or security we seek. Instead, we should take action ourselves and work towards our own goals. For example, imagine a student who wants to get good grades. If they only depend on their teacher or textbooks without making any effort themselves, they might not succeed. But if they study hard, even if they face difficulties, they can feel proud knowing they tried their best. This way, we take responsibility for our own lives and can find satisfaction in our efforts, regardless of the outcome.
