"世界で最も高貴な王座にあっても、私たちは自分の尻に座っているだけだ。"
— Michel de Montaigne

Simplified Meaning:
No matter how powerful or important you think you are, you're still just a regular person like everyone else. Imagine a king sitting on a grand throne; despite all the riches and power he has, deep down, he shares the same human traits and flaws as anyone else. For instance, even famous celebrities who appear perfect struggle with everyday problems, like getting sick or feeling sad. This helps us remember that we’re all equal at our core, and nobody is better than anyone else. Keeping this in mind can make us more humble and kind in our interactions with others. It encourages us to treat everyone with respect, regardless of their status or position.
