By nature man hates change; seldom will he quit his old home till it has actually fallen around his ears.

Summary

This quote suggests that humans have a natural aversion to change, and are often hesitant to leave their familiar surroundings until circumstances force them to do so. It reflects the resistance and discomfort many individuals feel when faced with the need to embrace new situations or adapt to different environments. The reference to "old home" symbolizes the attachment people have to their routines and the sense of security and comfort they find within familiarity, only willing to let go once it becomes absolutely necessary.
