As the births of living creatures, at first, are ill-shapen:

Summary

This quote suggests that just like newborn creatures, innovations or new ideas may appear imperfect or flawed at their early stages. Similar to how a newborn living creature takes time to grow and develop into their desired form, innovations also require time to evolve and mature. It indicates that initial versions of new concepts may seem unrefined or unsatisfactory, but as time progresses, they have the potential to transform into something more valuable and impactful. It emphasizes the importance of patience and allowing ideas to develop naturally before making judgments about their worth or potential success.
