“The world is full of cruel men, but many of them are on our side.”

George R.R. Martin

Simplified Meaning:

In life, we often come across people who can be harsh or mean. Surprisingly, some of these people might actually seem friendly or be part of our own group, community, or even our friends. For example, in school, you might have classmates who treat others badly but are still considered popular or cool by the group. This shows that just because someone is close to us or shares our interests does not mean they can't be unkind. It's important to recognize that cruelty can exist anywhere, even among those we think are our allies. By understanding this, we can be more careful in choosing our friends and allies, ensuring they are truly kind and supportive.
