“A proud man is always looking down on things”
— C. S. Lewis
Copied to clipboard
Simplified Meaning:
When someone is very proud or arrogant, they tend to look down on other people or situations, thinking they are better or more important. This attitude can make them miss important things around them because they don't see anything as valuable if it is below them. For example, imagine a boss who thinks he knows everything and never listens to his employees' ideas. He might miss out on great suggestions that could help the company grow. In everyday life, if you always think you're better than others, you might not learn new things or make strong relationships because you aren’t open to other perspectives. It’s important to stay humble and pay attention to those around you, as everybody has something valuable to offer.
