Summary

This quote implies that even in a successful or thriving situation, there may still be imperfections or undesirable elements present.

It suggests that perfection isn't necessary for something to be considered good or valuable, and that a few imperfections shouldn't undermine the overall quality or worth of a situation or thing.
