"影響を受けていない人々が影響を受けている人々と同じように憤慨するまで正義は成し遂げられない。"

Benjamin Franklin

Simplified Meaning:

When something unfair happens, real change will only come when people who are not directly harmed by the problem care just as much as those who are hurt. For example, if there's a rule that treats a certain group unfairly, it won't get fixed if only that group complains. But, if everyone speaks up, including those who are not affected, the issue gets more attention and is more likely to be solved. Imagine in a school, if only the bullied kids complain, it might not be enough to stop the bullying. But if their friends and other students also show concern and ask for change, the school is more likely to take action. This shows that for justice to really happen, everyone needs to care about fairness and speak out against wrongs, not just those who suffer from them.
