Save referenceCuriosity Gap
The quote names no lesson, only that a man millions listen to wishes he had it sooner. That empty space is the pull. If he regrets learning it late, you start worrying you are learning it late too, and the click closes that worry.
Title
The title names the famous thinker and promises a changed future.
Thumbnail
The thumbnail pairs his stern painted face with a regret quote that hides the lesson.

A regret quote withholds the lesson and doubles the urgency.

Bring the reference into a packaging brief, then decide what your title and thumbnail should each communicate.
