Summary

This quote suggests that even though authors strive to create characters that reflect human nature, they are often forced to portray them with inconsistencies. This could be due to the complex and multifaceted nature of human beings, as well as the limitations of storytelling. Despite the goal of creating realistic characters, authors may find it challenging to capture all the intricate nuances and contradictions that exist within human nature. Hence, they are compelled to include certain inconsistencies in order to make their characters more relatable and believable.
