"人々の顔を見るのが怖かった。彼らの目はとても鋭くて燃えるようだった。彼らの視線は普通の人々の視線とは違っていた。"
— Fyodor Dostoevsky
Simplified Meaning:
The quote talks about feeling scared to look at other people's faces because their eyes seemed intense and piercing. It's as if their gazes were so powerful that it felt uncomfortable or threatening. Imagine a time when you did something wrong and had to face your parents or teacher. The way they looked at you made you feel like they could see right through you, knowing everything you did. Their eyes held a special, intense force that regular looks usually don't have. In life, if we ever feel judged or scrutinized, it can be hard to face people directly. To handle this, try to stay calm, be honest, and remember that their strong looks are just a reflection of the moment, not of who you are as a whole person.
