Summary

This quote suggests that despite having great potential and abilities, the individuals being referred to continue to live in a primitive and undeveloped manner, similar to monkeys.

Instead, they remain ignorant or indifferent towards their own potential, allowing it to go unnoticed or wasted, much like valuable resources lying neglected in the weeds.
