Read the quotation. let me walk three weeks in the footsteps of my enemy, carry the same burden, have the same trials as he, before i say one word to criticize. which statement best restates the main idea of this quotation? do not criticize an enemy after pretending to be him or her for three weeks. it’s not good to criticize others because we don’t know what they face in life. it’s acceptable to criticize an enemy because he or she is not a good person. criticizing another person is all right after a certain amount of time has passed.

The answer is It’s not good to criticize others because we don’t know what they face in life. The idea is first to try to understand what the motivations are before we engage in criticism.

The first option mentions the limit of three weeks, in the quotation three weeks can be understood as a period to have an idea of the other's motivations, it is not a number to be interpreted literally.

Surely the quotation is against the idea that the enemy is not a good person, on the contrary, the quotation urges people to try to check what is behind the deemed enemy.

it does not follow logically that it is all right to criticize another person after we get to know them, we can have a better idea of their motivation and maybe raise some criticism.

"It’s not good to criticize others because we don’t know what they face in life." This is the best statement that restates the main idea of the quotation. The speaker says that he should be in the enemy's place- let me walk in the footsteps - and live the enemy's life feeling some of his problems - same problems ...same trials - before he can give any opinion about him /her- ..before I say one- .

-Do not criticize an enemy after pretending to be him or her for three weeks.  The speaker does not pretend to be his enemy but to sympathize with him.

-It’s acceptable to criticize an enemy because he or she is not a good person. The speaker does not judge his enemy. He says the other person should be comprehended.

-Criticizing another person is all right after a certain amount of time has passed. The speaker is against criticizing a person. A person should be comprehended.
