The Figurative
The Figurative
It has two meanings. A literal and a figurative. The literal meaning is dont look at a books cover and judge it based on that alone. Content should be what you judge, not the cover.
The figurative meaning applies to other things than books. Basically, for example, dont look at a person and judge them based on their outward appearance (looks, clothes, hair, etc). Get to know the person and talk to them. Base you opinion only after you got to know the person. Judge based on content not appearance
Another explination is with something you have not done yet. Example, just based on its appearance
, you might say that baseball is lame but you never played the game. Then you give it a try, and you think its the best thing in the world. Here is the same thing. You based, in this case, the apperence of something, rather than someone, on appearance
alone. When you actually played and got involved did you realize how good a game baseball can be. Again, judge by content, not by appearance
