Simplified Meaning:

People who are naturally kind and honest don't need rules to behave well. They already know what's right and do it because they want to. For example, imagine a person who always throws trash in the bin. They don't need a sign to remind them because they care about keeping the place clean. On the other hand, people who aren't considerate will try to break the rules if they can get away with it. Think about someone who speeds on the road even though there are traffic laws. They might slow down when they see a police car but speed up as soon as it's gone. To use this idea in your life, focus on being the kind of person who does the right thing because it's right, not because you're afraid of getting caught. This way, you help make the world a better place, and you can feel good about your actions every day.
