— Euripides

Simplified Meaning:
Before making a decision or forming an opinion, especially when there's a disagreement, it's important to listen to everyone involved. For example, if two friends are arguing, don't just believe the first friend's story without hearing what the second friend has to say. Both people might have different perspectives or important information that could change your understanding of the situation. By listening to both sides, you can make a fairer judgment and avoid misunderstandings. This approach helps in being just and prevents you from prematurely jumping to conclusions. Applying this in real life, whether at work, home or in school, can lead to more thoughtful and balanced outcomes in conflicts.
