"J'ai appris le silence des bavards, la tolérance des intolérants, et la gentillesse des méchants pourtant étrangement, je suis ingrat envers ces enseignants"
— Khalil Gibran
Simplified Meaning:
You can learn important things from people who have negative traits, like learning to be quiet from people who talk too much. However, even though these people teach you valuable lessons in an indirect way, you might not feel thankful to them.
