“What hurts the victim most is not the cruelty of the oppressor, but the silence of the bystander.”
— Elie Wiesel
Simplified Meaning:
Imagine you're in a playground and a bully is picking on someone. The pain of the situation isn't just from what the bully does. What really hurts the person being bullied is when everyone else around sees what's happening but doesn't do anything to help. It's like if someone fell and nobody offered a hand to help them up. This shows how important it is for people to speak up and support each other. If we see someone being treated unfairly, staying quiet hurts almost as much as the act of bullying itself. By standing up and saying something, we can help make things better and show that we care.
