"Méfiez-vous de l'homme qui ne rend pas votre coup il ne vous pardonne pas et ne vous permet pas de vous pardonner vous-même"

George Bernard Shaw

Simplified Meaning:

When someone doesn't hit back after being struck by you, it means they're still holding onto the hurt inside. They aren't choosing to forgive you, and because of that, it also makes it hard for you to feel any relief or make peace with what happened. Think about a time when a friend gets upset with you but doesn't talk about it or act angry. This silence keeps the tension and makes it hard for either of you to move on. In life, if we want to end conflicts and find peace, both sides need to express their feelings and work towards forgiveness. By doing so, everyone involved can heal and let go of the pain.
