"控えめな疑いは賢者の灯台と呼ばれる。"
— William Shakespeare
Simplified Meaning:
Being a little unsure or questioning things helps smart people make better decisions. For example, when a scientist doubted old beliefs about disease, he discovered new ways to treat patients. This small doubt pushed him to find the truth. In everyday life, if you're unsure how to fix something at home, asking questions or seeking advice can lead to better solutions. By not always assuming you’re right, you stay open to learning and improving. Doubt guides you to look deeper and understand things better, leading to wiser choices.
