Summary

This quote suggests that a person's true value can be measured by the internal struggle they face. When an individual engages in self-reflection and grapples with their inner conflicts, it signifies that they possess a level of integrity, self-awareness, and the willingness to challenge themselves. It implies that personal growth and self-improvement stem from confronting our own internal battles. Therefore, the quote implies that a person's worth is not defined by victory in external fights but rather by their ability to engage in an internal battle and work towards self-betterment.
