To be good is to be in harmony with oneself. Discord is to be forced to be in harmony with others.
Behind the line
What it means
Our interpretation.
The speaker defines goodness as inner accord, being at peace with who one is. Discord, by contrast, is what results when a person is compelled to fit in with others. The aphorism prizes self-consistency over social conformity and treats forced agreement as the real disturbance.
