“He is a fool who sees not”
— William Blake
Simplified Meaning:
If someone ignores things right in front of them, they are not wise. Imagine a person walking through a busy street looking at their phone instead of watching where they are going. They might bump into people or miss seeing an open manhole. This behavior shows they are not paying attention to what is around them, making them less smart. It's important to notice your surroundings so you can avoid problems and stay safe. Being aware of what's happening around you helps you make better decisions and not miss important details.
