“Where envy reigns virtue can't live.”

Simplified Meaning:
When someone is filled with jealousy, they can't act kindly or do good things. For example, imagine in school, there's a student who always gets the highest grades. Another student might feel very jealous and instead of working hard, they might start talking badly about that student or try to cheat. Their jealousy stops them from being a nice person or doing the right thing. In life, if we focus too much on what others have and feel envious, we might end up hurting ourselves and others. Instead of feeling envious, it's better to be happy for others and concentrate on our own progress. This way, we can be better people and spread positivity. Acting with integrity and kindness leads to a more fulfilling and peaceful life.
