— Martin Luther King Jr.

Simplified Meaning:
It's important to remember that something being legal doesn't always make it right or good. Just because a law exists doesn't mean it's fair or just. For example, in Nazi Germany, Hitler's actions were allowed by the law, but they were very harmful and unjust. This teaches us to think critically about rules and laws and to question them if they hurt people or are unfair. In our lives, we should not blindly follow rules; instead, we should also listen to our own sense of right and wrong. It's crucial to stand up against laws and actions that cause harm, even if they are legal.
