“You have lost your reason and taken the wrong path. You have taken lies for truth, and hideousness for beauty.”

Anton Chekhov

Simplified Meaning:

Sometimes people make mistakes in how they see things. They might believe things that aren’t true and think that bad things are actually good. Imagine someone who trusts a dishonest friend. They might think this friend is kind and dependable while ignoring all the times the friend lied or was mean. This person is confused and can't see the friend’s true nature. In life, it’s important to think clearly and carefully, so you don't get tricked by appearances. By always questioning and seeking the truth, you can make better decisions and avoid being misled.
