Philip Sidney

Simplified Meaning:

It's important to have lots of common sense, even more than book smarts or fancy knowledge. For example, knowing how to cook complicated dishes is great, but it’s more important to understand basic kitchen safety to avoid accidents. Common sense helps us make good decisions in everyday life, like knowing not to touch something hot or not to spend all our money at once. Without it, even if we're really smart or know a lot of facts, we might still make poor choices. By using common sense, we can handle challenges better and stay safe and practical in our actions. So, while learning new things is valuable, using sensible judgment is key to living well.
