“Looks are deceptive.”
— Aesop
Copied to clipboard
Simplified Meaning:
People often think things based on appearances, but appearances can be misleading. For example, a shiny red apple might look delicious, but it could taste sour or have a rotten inside. In another situation, someone might look very serious and unfriendly, but once you get to know them, you find out they are really kind and funny. This idea helps us remember that we shouldn't judge people or things too quickly just based on how they look. It's important to take time to understand what's inside or to know the true nature of something or someone. By doing this, we make better decisions and are fairer to others.
