“It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes.”
— Douglas Adams

Simplified Meaning:
You can't fix big problems with only simple solutions. Imagine you have a car with a broken engine. Giving it a new coat of paint won't help it run again. Big issues often need more than just one, basic answer. For example, if a city has traffic problems, building only one new road won't make everything better. They may also need new bus lines, bike paths, and better traffic rules. So, when faced with big challenges, it's important to think of many ways to solve them, not just one simple idea.
