“What is reprehensible is people who... tell you there are limits and that you can't do this or that. These are the people who when you say you can think freely, say it's only thinkable up to a certain point.”
— Salman Rushdie

Simplified Meaning:
Some people try to tell you what you can and can't do, limiting your possibilities and discouraging you from thinking big. They may say that you're allowed to be creative and come up with new ideas, but only within strict boundaries they set. Imagine you're a child drawing a picture, and an adult tells you that you can only use certain colors or draw certain things. This puts a limit on your imagination, stopping you from expressing yourself fully. In life, it's important to ignore these restrictions and believe in your own potential without feeling confined. When others impose limits, remember their constraints are not your reality; you can always push beyond and explore new horizons.
