English Translation
The urge to see things for oneself is what carried the Europeans to distant lands. That same appetite keeps drawing a person toward sights that end in sorrow, and turning up wherever a crowd gathers eventually lands one in danger.
Cultural Context
“Used to caution a person whose curiosity makes them attend every gathering or go looking at everything that happens.”
