"有罪的良心需要忏悔。"

Albert Camus

Simplified Meaning:

When we feel bad because we know we've done something wrong, we often feel a strong urge to tell someone about it to feel better. Think about a child who breaks a vase and hides the pieces. Inside, the child feels uneasy and guilty because they know they did something they shouldn’t have. This feeling eats at them, and eventually, they might confess to their parents because holding in the secret is too hard. Similarly, when adults do something wrong and know it deep down, admitting it can bring relief. Confessing helps clear the conscience and can lead to forgiveness or the chance to make things right. This idea encourages honesty and taking responsibility for our actions to find peace within ourselves.
