Definition: "The proverb that's like a jolt of lightning in an endless sea, is the one about 'Proverbs 27:23': "No man, when he walks on the face of the earth, can ever truly understand a word if not for those few words I've collected to tell you what it means to be human." This proverb tells us that, while we may often struggle with understanding other people, there's nothing wrong with simply hearing and learning from our own hearts and minds.
