“In a time of deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act.”
— George Orwell
Simplified Meaning:
When many people are lying or hiding the truth, saying what is honest and real becomes very powerful and unusual. Imagine living in a place where everyone is pretending to be someone they are not, and no one talks about what is really happening. In such a place, a person who speaks honestly stands out and can cause big changes. For example, during times in history when governments have kept secrets or limited free speech, people who spoke the truth often inspired others to seek change and demand honesty. Telling the truth in these situations can lead to new ideas and movements for fairness and justice. By being truthful, you encourage others to do the same, making a positive difference in your community.
