Summary

This quote suggests that there are two types of individuals in the world: those who actively engage in activities and take initiative to get things done, and those who simply reap the rewards or public recognition without putting in the effort. It implies that there is an unfair distribution of credit, where those who deserve it may not always receive recognition, while others who may not have contributed as much receive the credit. Ultimately, this quote prompts us to reflect on the dynamics of achievement, acknowledgement, and the recognition gap that may exist in society.
