"远胜于此的是,敢于尝试伟大事业,赢得辉煌胜利,即使失败也会给其带来斑斓……而不是与那些既不快乐也不痛苦的可怜之人同列,因为他们生活在一个既不知胜利也不知失败的灰色黄昏中。"

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.
