"La plus grande leçon de vie est de savoir que même les imbéciles ont parfois raison."

Winston Churchill

Simplified Meaning:

Sometimes, even people who often make mistakes or seem clueless can be correct. Just because someone usually gets things wrong doesn't mean they’re always wrong. For example, if a friend who is usually bad at giving advice tells you to bring an umbrella because it might rain, and it actually rains, it shows their advice can be right sometimes. This teaches us not to dismiss others’ opinions entirely, even if they often seem foolish. Being open to all ideas, regardless of the source, can help you find useful advice or unexpected truths. This can help you stay humble and learn from everyone you meet.
