"無礼な人は敬虔であることができない。無知な人は信心深くない。"
— Rabbi Hillel
Simplified Meaning:
Someone who is rude or lacks manners can't truly respect anything or anyone. Much like how a person who doesn't know much can't sincerely be devoted to something important. For instance, imagine a person who always talks loudly and interrupts others. This person cannot, with that behavior, show true respect in a situation where silence and attentiveness are needed, like in a theater or during a speech. Similarly, a person who never bothers to learn about their own religion or beliefs can't genuinely practice or honor them because they just don't understand enough to do it right. To apply this idea in our lives, we should strive to improve our behavior and educate ourselves on what matters to us. This way, we can show genuine respect and devotion in different situations and to the things we value.
