"もし私が他の二人の男性と歩いているなら、彼らはそれぞれ私の教師となるでしょう。私は一人の良い点を選び出して真似をし、もう一人の悪い点を見つけ出して自分自身でそれを正します。"
— Confucius

Simplified Meaning:
When you spend time with other people, you can learn something from everyone. Imagine you have two friends, Anna and Ben. Anna is always very kind and helps others, while Ben sometimes gets angry quickly. You can try to be more like Anna by being kind to others. At the same time, you can notice Ben’s temper and work on staying calm when you feel angry. In this way, you use the good and bad traits of people around you to improve yourself. This way of thinking can help you become a better person by learning from your interactions with others.
