"La créativité est toujours précédée par la destruction"
— Umberto Eco

Simplified Meaning:
When something new and original is created, often something old is removed or changed first. Think about a painter crafting a new piece of art. They might need to erase a few mistakes and paint over parts of their work before they can achieve their final masterpiece. It's like how a forest fire can seem damaging at first, but it actually clears out dead trees and makes space for fresh growth. In our own lives, we might have to let go of outdated habits or ideas to make way for new opportunities and innovations. So, to be creative and move forward, sometimes we have to break away from the past.
