"La civilisation est, entre autres choses, le processus par lequel les animaux sont transformés en hommes."
Simplified meaning
Civilization is like a big change that helps humans grow and improve over time. Imagine how humans started off like any other animals, just focused on basic needs like food and shelter. Over thousands of years, humans have learned how to build homes, create laws, develop art, and work together. For example, in history, people learned to farm instead of just hunting all the time. This let them settle in one place and build communities. As societies developed, people started valuing education, arts, and helping each other, which are things animals don't typically do. By following these steps, humans have created complex, organized societies where we respect and care for each other more. This helps us live better lives, and we can keep improving by continuing to learn and work together.
