“The healthy man does not torture others generally it is the tortured who turn into torturers”
— Carl Jung

Simplified Meaning:
People who are happy and well usually don't hurt other people. But those who have been hurt themselves often end up hurting others. Imagine a child who is bullied at school. This child might grow up feeling angry or sad and might start bullying others because that's what they learned. On the other hand, a child who grows up in a loving environment learns to be kind and doesn't feel the need to hurt others. So, if you want to create a kinder world, it's important to understand that being nice to everyone can stop the cycle of hurt. Treat people with kindness and care, and they will be more likely to do the same.
