“If virtue and knowledge are diffused among the people, they will never be enslaved”
— James Madison
Simplified Meaning:
When people have good morals and a lot of knowledge, they cannot be easily controlled or oppressed. Imagine a village where everyone learns about honesty, fairness, and their rights. In this village, if someone tries to trick or take advantage of them, the people will recognize it and stand up for themselves. A good example is the fight for civil rights in history, where educated and morally strong leaders helped people understand their worth and demand equal treatment. Learning about what is right and becoming well-informed helps people make better choices, stand together, and resist bad influences. Living by this idea, you should always seek to learn more and act with integrity because it makes you strong and shields you from being exploited by others.
