"La medicina cura las enfermedades del cuerpo la sabiduría libera el alma de las pasiones."
— Democritus

Simplified Meaning:
While doctors and medicine can help fix problems you have in your body, things like love, anger, and desire need a different kind of help. Wisdom, or making good decisions and understanding life deeply, can calm your emotions and thoughts. Think of it this way: if you have a headache, you take a pill and feel better. But if you're feeling really jealous or scared, no pill can fix that. Instead, learning and growing as a person helps you control those strong feelings. For example, if someone is very angry and always fights with others, through wisdom, they can learn to understand and manage their anger better. This makes their life more peaceful and happy.
