"A clever person solves a problem. A wise person avoids it."
Simplified meaning
When faced with an issue, a smart person can find a solution to fix it. But someone wise will notice the potential problem beforehand and take steps to prevent it from happening in the first place. Imagine you're planning a picnic. A clever person might bring bandages and medicine in case anyone gets hurt. A wise person, however, would choose a safe spot away from hazards, making sure there's no danger in the first place. In life, it’s not just about solving problems; it’s also about being careful and thoughtful enough to keep problems from arising. By being proactive and thinking ahead, you can save yourself from a lot of trouble and stress.
