"Il y a essentiellement deux types de personnes. Les personnes qui accomplissent des choses, et les personnes qui prétendent avoir accompli des choses. Le premier groupe est moins nombreux."

Mark Twain

Simplified Meaning:

In life, there are mainly two groups of people. The first group actually gets things done—they work hard, make efforts, and achieve real results. The second group just talks about doing things or claims they have done things, even if they haven't really put in the work. Imagine students in a class: some study hard, understand the material, and perform well in exams. They are part of the first group. Others might brag about how much they know or how much they study, but they don't have the actual results to show. They are part of the second group. To be successful, one should aim to be in the first group, focusing on real actions and accomplishments rather than just talking or pretending. By doing so, they can truly stand out because fewer people put in the effort needed to achieve real success.
