"إنه الجندي، وليس الشاعر، الذي منحنا حرية التعبير"
— Douglas MacArthur
Simplified Meaning:
People often see poets and writers as the champions of free speech, expressing thoughts and ideas openly. However, freedom of speech exists because soldiers fight to protect our country and its values. For instance, in many places around the world, wars have been fought to gain or defend freedom. Think about how soldiers fought in World War II to stop oppressive regimes, allowing people to keep their freedoms. In everyday life, we should remember that the ability to speak openly comes from the security and peace provided by those who defend the nation. So, while poets use that freedom, it's soldiers who make it possible.
