Summary

This quote highlights the importance of being observant and discerning in our interactions with others. It suggests that when we closely analyze those who support or show favor towards us, we will find two groups of people: those who lack empathy and remain indifferent to our feelings, and those who lack knowledge or understanding in certain areas.
