"誰でも簡単に悪事を働くことができるが、すべての人が善事を行えるわけではない"
— Plato
Simplified Meaning:
It's much easier to cause trouble or hurt someone than to help or do something kind. For instance, anyone can break a promise or tell a lie, and that can really hurt others. On the other hand, being kind, keeping promises, or helping others can be much harder. It takes effort and sometimes even sacrifice. Think about a classroom: making fun of a new student can be quick and easy, but being a friend to that student requires more time and kindness. Doing good often means thinking about others and working hard to make their lives better. Following this idea means trying to choose actions that help people, even when it's not the easiest thing to do.
