Brief Outline 

Terms:

Understanding:
The fool takes no pleasure in wisdom and insight, a capacity for discerning a right course of action.

Opinion:
heart, i.e., the blood pumping organ of the body, mind, soul, spirit, self, i.e., the source of life of the inner person in various aspects, with a focus on feelings, thoughts, volition, and other areas of the inner life.

{KJV} Proverbs 18:2-A fool hath no delight in understanding, But that his heart may discover itself.
The fool is not interested in looking outside of himself but he is only interested in looking within.

Questions:
Why doesn't the fool take pleasure in understanding?
Why does he only take pleasure in expressing his own opinion (or his own heart)?
What does the bible have to say about the heart of man?

Answer:
The fool takes no pleasure in receiving wisdom and insight and would rather express his opinion because he is full of his own pride.
To him all the answers of life are within Himself. In other words, he is his own god. All revelation is within and not outward.
The problem is that the fool does not understand that his heart (his entire being-His mind, soul, spirit, his inner person) is decetful above all else.
