"Chaque génération se sent sans doute appelée à réformer le monde. La mienne sait qu'elle ne le réformera pas, mais sa tâche est peut-être encore plus grande. Elle consiste à empêcher le monde de se détruire."
— Albert Camus

Simplified Meaning:
Every group of people born around the same time often feels a strong desire to make the world a better place. For instance, in the 1960s, many people fought for civil rights, believing they could create a more just society. However, today’s generation understands that completely fixing all the world's problems may not be possible. Instead, their important mission is to stop things from getting worse or even leading to major disasters. This can include tackling big issues like climate change or working to prevent wars, which if left unchecked, could lead to serious harm for everyone. By focusing on stopping the biggest threats, they are doing a crucial job of keeping the world safe and stable.
