Quote of the day by physician Avicenna: Is it the fault of wine if a fool drinks it and goes stumbling into darkness? - a timeless lesson on personal responsibility

Avicenna's ancient wisdom emphasizes personal responsibility for actions and outcomes. He argued that objects and circumstances do not possess agency to cause harm. Individuals are accountable for their choices and how they utilize available resources. This principle applies universally to tools, wealth, and knowledge. Accepting this responsibility is the starting point for true wisdom.
