Summary

This quote suggests that sometimes our idleness and daydreaming can lead us to discover hidden truths or ideas that were buried in our subconscious. When our minds are not occupied with mundane tasks, we have the opportunity to let our thoughts wander and explore unconventional avenues. In these moments, the submerged truth, which may have been suppressed or ignored in our busy lives, can rise to the surface. It highlights the importance of giving ourselves space to contemplate and reflect, as it is in these idle and dream-like states that valuable insights can emerge.
