In context

25I turned around, and my heart sought to know and to search out, and to seek wisdom and the scheme of things, and to know that wickedness is stupidity, and that foolishness is madness.

27“Behold, I have found this,” says the Preacher, “to one another, to find an explanation

28which my soul still seeks, but I have not found. I have found one man among a thousand, but I have not found a woman among all those.

29Behold, I have only found this: that God made mankind upright; but they search for many inventions.”
