"裏切りと暴力は両端が尖った槍のようなものであり、それに頼る者は敵よりもひどく傷つく。"

Emily Bronte

Simplified Meaning:

When someone uses betrayal or violence to hurt others, they end up getting hurt themselves. Think of a spear with sharp points on both ends. If you try to use it, you risk injuring yourself. For example, if a person lies to climb up at work, they might succeed at first. But eventually, their lies catch up to them, and they may lose their job and respect from others. Using dishonest or harmful ways to deal with problems can create bigger troubles for the one who chooses this path. Being fair and honest, even when it’s hard, is usually better in the long run.
