Simplified Meaning:

The quote is saying that the true meaning of the Constitution should not be hidden in complicated, abstract ideas. Instead, it should be clear and straightforward. Think of it like reading the instructions to build a piece of furniture. If the instructions were filled with complex and confusing language, you would probably misunderstand and assemble it incorrectly. In history, when leaders interpret the Constitution for their country, they should use simple logic and common sense so everyone can understand and follow the rules. For example, when a judge makes a decision based on the Constitution, he should explain it in a way that ordinary people can grasp, without making it overly complicated. This helps ensure fairness and transparency, making sure everyone knows their rights and responsibilities.
