"La communauté stagne sans l'impulsion de l'individu"
— William James
Simplified Meaning:
When people in a community do not come up with new ideas or take initiative, the group as a whole does not progress or grow. It’s like a classroom where no one ever raises their hand; if no one does, there won’t be any new questions or ideas to discuss, and learning stops. Think about inventors like Thomas Edison or Steve Jobs. Their personal actions and creativity gave us electric light and the iPhone, which have changed how we live. Each person’s effort can spark something big. If you have a unique idea or way of doing things, sharing it can help your community improve and move forward. For example, starting a recycling program in your neighborhood might inspire others to take better care of the environment. So remember, your individual actions can make a big difference in the world around you.
