"بهتر است گاهی به دلیل بخشش بیش از حد مرتکب اشتباه شویم تا اینکه مجالی برای سرزنش موجه باقی بگذاریم."
— Anatole France

Simplified Meaning:
Being kind and forgiving, even when it might seem too much, is better than being strict and harsh, which could lead to criticism. Imagine a teacher who has a student struggling with homework. If the teacher is lenient and gives the student extra help, even if it feels like more kindness than necessary, it’s better than being very strict and making the student feel bad or ashamed. In life, if we choose to be more understanding and generous, people are less likely to find reason to blame or criticize our actions. By showing mercy, we build better relationships and create a more positive environment around us. It’s about leaning on the side of kindness to avoid being judged for being too tough.
