"真理像光一样使人目眩谎言在"
— Albert Camus
Simplified Meaning:
When you discover the truth, it can sometimes be overwhelming or hard to accept, just like bright light can hurt your eyes. Imagine looking directly at the sun; it's too intense, and you have to turn away. In the same way, the real facts can be shocking or uncomfortable, making you want to ignore them. But when someone lies, it might feel comforting or easier to handle because it's like looking at a softer light that doesn’t hurt your eyes. For example, if a friend tells you they can't come to your party because they are busy, that might be a gentle lie to avoid hurting your feelings. The truth might be that they don’t enjoy parties, which could be hard for you to hear. However, knowing the truth helps you make better decisions in the future. In life, it's important to seek the truth even when it's tough, because it allows you to understand the real situation and grow from it.
