"认真对待疯狂的事情是严重的浪费时间。"
— Haruki Murakami
Simplified Meaning:
When you spend time worrying about or focusing on things that are silly or outlandish, you're not using your time wisely. Imagine spending hours thinking about wild conspiracy theories, like aliens building the pyramids, instead of doing something productive. It's like when a child insists that there's a monster under the bed and you spend all night checking under the bed rather than helping them understand there are no monsters. Using your time to seriously think about these kinds of crazy ideas means you're not spending that time on more important things, like learning new skills, taking care of your responsibilities, or planning for your future. So it's better to recognize when something is nonsensical and move on to what truly matters.
