Simplified Meaning:

This quote means that people who are considered very good, or even holy, are often those who have made mistakes but never gave up. They made a lot of errors, just like everyone else, but they kept working to improve and do better. Imagine a student who fails a math test multiple times. They keep studying hard, seeking help, and practicing problems again and again. With determination and perseverance, they eventually understand the material and start getting good grades. This student becomes a role model for others, not because they were always perfect, but because they never stopped trying to be better. Similarly, in life, those who achieve great things often face many challenges and failures. Their success comes because they continue to put in the effort, learn from their mistakes, and keep pushing forward. So, when someone feels down after a failure, they should remember that persistence and effort can lead to improvement and success.
