Cliches are what make you understand something.
Meaning of the quote
A cliche is a phrase or saying that is used so often that it has become very familiar to us. According to Matthew Vaughn, these common phrases can actually help us better understand the world around us. When we hear a cliche, it taps into our prior knowledge and experiences, making it easier for us to grasp the meaning behind the words. Cliches are like shortcuts that allow us to quickly connect new information to things we already know.
