"怒ることは他人の過ちを自分に報復することです。"
— Alexander Pope
Simplified Meaning:
Getting angry often means we're hurting ourselves because of what others did wrong. Imagine you're at work, and a colleague makes a mistake that affects your project. If you get very angry, you might lose focus, get stressed, and even mess up your own work. Your colleague's mistake made you upset, but your reaction is now causing you more harm. Instead of letting that anger take over, you can try to stay calm, fix the problem, and talk to your colleague later about their mistake. This way, you're not adding extra trouble for yourself. By managing your anger, you protect your own well-being and can handle things more effectively.
