Explain this quote..."let the world change you...and then you can change the world"?

Question

what does this quote mean to you?

Answer 1

I think it means that as you go through life the world and everything around you, teaches you a lot of things about life. And then after the world has changed you, you change the world by using the lessons you've learned and pass them on.

*Hope This Helps*

Answer 2

If you let the world change you so you can better understand it, it will do the same for you.  

Is that right?

Answer 3

if you take the time to learn the lessons life throws at you , only then can you pass on any knowledge to others.

Answer 4

meaning you have to change your own faults before you try changing the world
