"秘密沉默如石 坐在我们心中黑暗的宫殿 秘密厌倦了它们的暴政 暴君愿意被废黜"
— James Joyce

Simplified Meaning:
The quote talks about the secrets we keep hidden deep inside us, like locked away in dark places of our hearts. These secrets are heavy and tiring to carry, almost like they are rulers over us. Both the secrets and the people carrying them are tired of this situation. Just as a king might be ready to give up his throne, we are often ready to let go of these burdens. For example, someone might hide a mistake they made at work. Over time, the stress of keeping this secret can wear them down, making them feel much better once they finally confess and resolve the issue. The advice is to not let secrets control our lives and to consider freeing ourselves from their weight.
