"欠席者にはいつも過ちがあり、出席者にも常にԱյ."
— Benjamin Franklin
Simplified Meaning:
When people aren't around, it's easy to talk about their mistakes or blame them for problems. On the other hand, even when people are present, it doesn't mean they are perfect or without flaws. For example, think about a workplace meeting: if someone misses the meeting, their colleagues might blame them for anything that goes wrong or any decisions made. They might say, "If only they were here, this wouldn't have happened." However, even the people who do attend the meeting might make mistakes or say things that aren't helpful. This teaches us that blaming someone just because they are not there is often unfair. Similarly, we shouldn't assume that people who show up are always right. In our daily lives, it's important to be fair and understanding, whether someone is present or not. We should try to see the whole picture and not judge too quickly. It reminds us that everyone has strengths and weaknesses, regardless of where they are.
