Lucius Annaeus Seneca

Simplified Meaning:

Imagine someone who really loves eating junk food and never exercises. Over time, their body might become unhealthy, and they may face problems like being overweight or tired all the time. Even if they want to stop eating junk food and start exercising, it's very difficult for them because their body is so used to this lifestyle. In a way, they're trapped by their bad habits and can't live the life they want. This quote is saying that a person can't truly be free if they are controlled by their physical desires or weaknesses. Just like the person who can't break free from junk food, many people might find it hard to resist things like laziness, addiction, or unhealthy routines. To be free, a person needs to have control over their body and its impulses. If someone wants to live a better life, they can start small, like choosing to eat healthier meals or going for a walk each day. Over time, these small steps can give them more control over their body and habits, making them feel freer and happier.
