"故事重要,不是讲故事的人"

Stephen King

Simplified Meaning:

This quote means that the story itself is what's most important, not the person who shares it. Imagine two people telling the same joke. One person might be a famous comedian, and the other could be your friend, but if the joke is funny, it will make everyone laugh no matter who tells it. The focus should be on the content of the words, not the person delivering them. In history, consider the story of a hero's journey in a war. No matter who records or narrates the hero's bravery, the actions and the message of courage are what inspire others, not the historian. It's like reading a book: the lessons and adventures you find are what stay with you, not necessarily the author's name. Applying this idea to daily life, when giving advice or sharing your thoughts, remember that the value lies in what you are saying. So, if you have something meaningful to share, don’t worry too much about who you are or whether people know you. They will care more about the wisdom or excitement in your story than anything else.
