As vast a difference as between a goat and an elephant. (Worlds apart; a massive, incomparable difference.)

“ ആയിരം ഉപദേശം കാതിലെചെന്നാലും അപശ്ശബ്ദം അല്ലാതെ പുറപ്പെടുകയില്ല”
English Translation:
Even if a thousand wise teachings pour into their ears, nothing will issue from their lips but crude discord. (A perverse, vulgar mind cannot be elevated by education; whatever goodness goes in, only foulness comes out.)

“ കോലേൽ പഴന്തുണിചുറ്റിയപോലെ”
English Translation:
Like wrapping a ragged old cloth around a stick. (A shoddy, flimsy makeshift; or an emaciated, pathetic figure swathed in ill-fitting garments.)
