"没有丑陋的问题,只有披着傲慢外衣的问题。"
— John Steinbeck
Simplified Meaning:
When you ask questions to learn or understand, they are never bad or wrong. However, if you ask questions in a way that makes others feel stupid or inferior, then those questions become hurtful. Imagine a teacher and a student in a classroom. If the student asks a question because they don’t understand, that’s always a good thing. But if another student asks, "You don't know that?" or makes fun of the question, it makes the first student feel bad. The important part is to ask questions with kindness and respect. In your daily life, whether at work or with friends, always try to be thoughtful about how you ask things so everyone feels valued and respected.
