"Puedes matar el cuerpo pero no el espíritu."
— Robert Louis Stevenson

Simplified Meaning:
This quote means that even if someone causes harm to a person physically, they cannot destroy that person's beliefs, ideas, or inner strength. For example, think about a historical figure like Martin Luther King Jr. He was assassinated, but his ideas about equality and justice continue to inspire people around the world. His physical body is gone, but the spirit of what he stood for lives on. In our own lives, we can face many challenges and even get hurt, either emotionally or physically. However, if we hold on to our core values and inner strength, these keep us going and define who we are. This means that while the body can be vulnerable, our spirit, or what we stand for, remains strong and unshakeable.
