有没有更简短些的词语概括?

他山之石,可以攻玉
advice from other may help one overcome one's shortcomings

有一个常用的俚语:the grass is always greener on the other side, 直译:那边的草总比这边绿,这山望着那山高,他山之石的意思。

F.Y.I.

The stone from another hill can cut the jade.

By other's faults, wish men correct their owe! 他山之石 可以攻玉

advice from others may help one overcome one's difficulties.
