William Shakespeare

Simplified Meaning:

Some people who don't know much often believe they are very smart. On the other hand, truly smart people understand that there is always more to learn and that they don't know everything. For example, imagine a student who just started learning a new subject. If they quickly assume they know everything, they might make mistakes or overlook important details. However, a student who studies hard and asks questions realizes that learning is ongoing and never really ends. This attitude helps them grow and improve over time. By staying humble and open-minded, anyone can keep learning and becoming wiser.
