Quote by Oscar Wilde

A person who, because he has corns himself, always treads on other people's toes.

A person who, because he has corns himself, always treads on

Summary

This quote is a metaphorical representation of someone who, due to their own physical discomfort or personal issues, tends to cause unintentional harm or annoyance to others. Just as a person suffering from corns, or painful foot conditions, might inadvertently step on others' toes while walking, this quote suggests that a person stuck in their own problems might unknowingly hurt or inconvenience those around them. It serves as a reminder to be mindful of our own actions and how they may affect others, even when dealing with our own burdens.
