"کسانی که بر داستانی که بر زندگی آنها تسلط دارد قدرت ندارند قدرت بازگویی آن، بازاندیشی آن، تجزیه آن، شوخی با آن و تغییر آن با گذر زمان واقعا بی‌قدرت هستند"

Salman Rushdie

Simplified Meaning:

If you can't control or change the story of your own life, you'll feel helpless. Imagine a child who is always told they're bad at school, and they start believing it. They never try to study harder or improve because that story controls them. But if they take charge and think, "Maybe I can learn and do well if I try," they can change their future. Being able to see things differently and rewrite your own story gives you strength. It's about understanding that you can change how you see your past and shape your future. Having this power means you can adapt and grow, no matter what anyone else says.
