"El tiempo borra las ficciones de la opinión y confirma las decisiones de la naturaleza."
— Marcus Tullius Cicero

Simplified Meaning:
Over time, people's opinions often change and things they once believed can be proven wrong. What truly stands the test of time is the natural order and how life really works. For example, many years ago, people believed that the Earth was flat. As centuries passed and science developed, we learned that the Earth is actually round. This shows how nature's truth always comes out, even if it takes time. This wisdom teaches us to focus on what’s real and natural rather than being swayed by changing opinions.
