"家の中の男は通りにいる二人の男の価値がある"
— Mae West
Simplified Meaning:
This saying means that having someone reliable and helpful at home is more valuable than knowing two people who are less dependable and unavailable in everyday life. Think about having a family member or friend who lives with you or close by. When you need help, like fixing a leaky faucet or carrying heavy groceries, that person can assist you right away. On the other hand, knowing a couple of people who live far away or are always too busy to help doesn’t really provide the same support. It's like having a dependable team member at work who you can always count on, compared to having some contacts you rarely see that may not come through when needed. By appreciating and supporting those close to us, we can ensure a reliable support system in our daily lives.
