"به مراتب بهتر است که کارهای بزرگی را جسورانه انجام دهیم، بر پیروزیهای شکوهمند غلبه کنیم، حتی اگر با شکستهایی همراه باشد... تا اینکه در ردیف آن دسته از روحهای نالایق قرار گیریم که نه لذتی میبرند و نه رنجی میکشند، چرا که در نیمهروشنایی خاکستری زندگی می"
— Theodore Roosevelt
Simplified Meaning:
Taking big risks and trying to achieve great things is much more rewarding, even if you sometimes fail. It's better to go after your dreams and have the chance to succeed, rather than playing it safe and never experiencing real joy or pain. For instance, imagine an athlete training hard and competing in the Olympics. Even if they don't win, they experience the excitement of the effort and the pride of competing among the best. On the other hand, someone who never tries anything challenging stays safe but misses out on the thrilling highs and the valuable lessons from failures. Applying this to your life, don't be afraid to chase after what you truly want, because the journey itself can be incredibly fulfilling. Living boldly, with ups and downs, is far richer than living cautiously, avoiding any kind of challenge.
