"人が悪い名前だと思っているものと呼ばれることは決して侮辱ではありません。それはその人がどれだけ貧しいかを示しているだけで、あなたを傷つけません。"

Harper Lee

Simplified Meaning:

When someone calls you a mean name, it says more about them than about you. It shows that they are not very kind or understanding, rather than it actually being a reflection of who you are. Think about a time on the playground when one child calls another "stupid." This mean word doesn’t actually make the child stupid; instead, it shows that the one using the word is trying to hurt feelings because they might feel unhappy or insecure themselves. When you understand that the insult doesn’t change who you are, it loses its power to upset you. So, if someone tries to put you down, remember it’s their problem, not yours, and it doesn’t need to affect how you feel about yourself. Use this understanding to stay confident and not let the negativity of others bring you down.
