Summary

This quote suggests that human beings possess an innate tendency to desire things that are unattainable and disregard the value of what is easily accessible. It points to a common weakness in human nature, implying that people are attracted to the allure of the forbidden or scarce, often overlooking or undervaluing what is already within their reach. This aspect of human behavior can potentially lead to dissatisfaction or missed opportunities by prioritizing the unattainable over what is readily available.
