Simplified Meaning:
When someone is greedy, they're never happy with what they have; they always want more. Imagine a child who gets a big piece of cake but then sees another slice and wants that too. Even with a big cake in their hands, they're not satisfied because they just keep thinking about more cake. This mindset keeps them feeling like they're missing something, even when they have plenty. In life, people like this often feel unhappy no matter how much they get because their desire for more never stops. To be happier, it's better to appreciate what you have rather than always chasing after more.
