This quote highlights the intrinsic link between growth and pain. It suggests that meaningful self-improvement involves a process of transformation that often requires enduring hardship. Like a sculptor chiseling away at a marble block, we must remove old layers and confront challenges to shape ourselves into better versions. Suffering is portrayed not as an obstacle, but as an essential part of the creative process that leads to genuine personal development and self-mastery.
