“If only God would give me some clear sign! Like making a large deposit in my name at a Swiss bank.”

Woody Allen

Simplified Meaning:

The person is frustrated because they want a sign or message from God that is obvious and unmistakable. They joke that a clear sign would be something like a lot of money magically appearing in their bank account. This reflects how people often wish for clear, dramatic signs when making decisions or seeking guidance. For example, imagine someone trying to decide whether to stay in a job they dislike or to pursue a new career. Instead of waiting for some miraculous sign, they should consider what makes them happy and what they are passionate about. The quote humorously suggests that people sometimes hope for unrealistic solutions when faced with tough choices. Instead of waiting for such signs, it's often better to trust our own judgment and take small, practical steps towards our goals.
