Summary

This quote suggests that while talent may thrive in a calm and peaceful environment, true character is honed and shaped through the challenges and complexities of real-life experiences. In moments of peace and tranquility, talents can be discovered and cultivated, but it is in the midst of the turbulent currents of human existence that one's character is truly formed and tested. Through encountering and overcoming various obstacles and interacting with others, one's character develops its strength, integrity, and resilience.
