"اشتباه به دلیل اینکه اکثریت در آن سهیم هستند متوقف نمی‌شود"

Leo Tolstoy

Simplified Meaning:

Even if a lot of people do something wrong, it doesn't make it right. Think about when kids in a classroom all decide to cheat on a test together. Just because everyone is doing it doesn't mean cheating is okay. It’s important to stick to what you know is right, no matter how many people are doing the wrong thing. Sometimes, people follow the crowd because they don't want to feel left out, but it's better to stand up for what's right. For instance, in history, many people supported actions that were later seen as very wrong, such as segregation laws. If just a few people had been brave enough to stand against those bad practices, things might have changed sooner. In your own life, trust your own sense of right and wrong, even if it feels like you're the only one.
