“Never explain. Your friends won’t need it. And haters will continue to hate (because they also hate themselves).”
— Paulo Coelho

Simplified Meaning:
When you try to explain yourself, your friends don't actually need it; they already understand you and believe in you. On the other hand, people who dislike you will keep on disliking you no matter what you say. An example of this could be seen in school. Imagine you got in trouble for something that wasn't your fault. Your true friends know you're not to blame and support you, without needing any explanation from you. But those who don't like you will ignore whatever you say and keep thinking badly of you. This quote teaches us not to waste our energy trying to convince people who have already made up their minds. Instead, focus on the relationships that really matter and where your time and energy will be appreciated.
