"لقد تعلمت الصمت من كثيري الكلام والتسامح من غير المتسامحين واللطف من غير الطيبين ومع ذلك الغريب أنني جاحد لهؤلاء المعلمين"
— Khalil Gibran
Simplified Meaning:
This quote is about learning important life lessons from difficult experiences and people. Even though it seems surprising, we can learn a lot from those who do the opposite of what we want. For example, if someone talks too much and never listens, it can teach us the value of being quiet and listening to others. When we meet someone who is not tolerant of different opinions or people, it can show us why it's important to be accepting and patient with others. And when people treat us unkindly, it helps us understand the importance of being kind and gentle with everyone. Even though we learn so much from these experiences, we often don't appreciate them or the difficult people involved. We would prefer to learn from positive examples, but the hard lessons are sometimes the most powerful.
