"حقيقة تُقال بنية سيئة تفوق كل الأكاذيب التي يمكنك اختراعها"
— William Blake
Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, telling the truth with the aim of hurting someone is worse than telling lies. Imagine you know a secret about a friend that will make them very sad if they hear it. If you tell them this secret just to upset them, that's cruel, even though it's true. This is often worse than making up a story because you are using the truth to cause pain. For example, if you find out that someone doesn't really like your friend's artwork and you tell your friend just to make them feel bad, that's using the truth in a harmful way. It's important to be kind and think about the impact of your words, even when you're being honest.
