“If you must break the law, do it to seize power; in all other cases observe it”

Julius Caesar

Simplified Meaning:

Sometimes, breaking the rules can be seen as acceptable if it's for gaining control or achieving something very important. However, in everyday situations, it's better to follow the law and stay within the rules. Think of it like this: imagine someone leading a revolution against a bad government. They might break some laws to try and take power and make things better for everyone. But, for normal things like buying groceries or driving a car, it's important to follow the rules to keep society running smoothly. So, only consider breaking rules for very serious reasons, and otherwise, stick to them to keep order and peace in daily life.
