"Para vivir sabiamente tu vida, no necesitas saber mucho. Solo recuerda dos reglas principales para comenzar: Preferible es pasar hambre que comer lo que sea. Y es mejor estar solo que con cualquiera."

Omar Khayyam

Simplified Meaning:

Living your life wisely isn't about knowing everything. It's about making smart choices to protect your well-being and happiness. First, it's better to go without rather than settle for something harmful or poor quality. Imagine if you're really hungry and you eat food that's spoiled—you could get very sick. It's better to wait for something good and healthy. Second, it's better to be alone than to be with people who don't care about you or treat you poorly. Think about being with friends who always make you feel bad. It's healthier to wait for true friends who uplift and support you. In simpler terms, focus on quality over quantity in your life choices, and you'll be better off.
