Answer:

What does it mean?

This quote means that success comes with a price that you need to pay, meaning that there is no magical pill, and another requirement for success is to have a strong interest in the area you are trying to succeed in.


Why does it matter?

It's a message for a generation of young seeds, for all those who are lying down, waiting for success to come knocking on their door, and all those who are lost, frustrated at what they are doing. Pele empathizes that success comes with sweat, tears, and love. He is trying to educate people to strive for a goal that they love, and the willingness for them to work hard for it.
