"يمكننا الحكم على تقدمنا من خلال شجاعة أسئلتنا وعمق إجاباتنا واستعدادنا لاحتضان ما هو حقيقي بدلاً مما يشعرنا بالراحة."
— Carl Sagan
Simplified Meaning:
Thinking about how far we’ve come is about the bravery of asking tough questions and how well we answer them. It's also about being open to the truth, even if it’s uncomfortable, instead of just going with what makes us happy. For instance, in school, a student who asks challenging questions about science or history shows they want to truly understand, instead of just memorizing facts to pass tests. When they search deeply for answers, they learn more and grow. Similarly, in life, someone who faces the reality of a tough situation, like a personal failure, and learns from it, rather than pretending everything is fine, will grow stronger and wiser. This mindset can help anyone improve both in their knowledge and in their personal development.
