Innocence most often is a good fortune and not a virtue.

Summary

This quote suggests that innocence is more often considered a fortunate circumstance rather than a deliberate virtue. It implies that one's innocence is often bestowed upon them by chance rather than being actively sought after or cultivated. By emphasizing the element of luck, the quote challenges the perception of innocence as an inherent moral virtue and raises the possibility that it is simply a state of unknowing or naiveté.
