"On considère qu'un pays est d'autant plus civilisé que la sagesse et l'efficacité de ses lois empêchent un homme faible de devenir trop faible ou un homme puissant trop puissant."
— Primo Levi

Simplified Meaning:
When a country has good laws that are smart and work well, it can help to make sure that weak people don’t get pushed down even more and strong people don’t get too much power. Imagine a playground. If there are good rules, then the kids who are not very strong won't get bullied, and the kids who are stronger won't take over everything. This balance makes the playground fair and safe for everyone. In a country, this means having rules that protect everyone's rights and make sure no one takes advantage of others. If you live in such a country, you can feel good knowing that you are protected by these fair laws, no matter if you are weak or strong.
