Summary

This quote suggests that enthusiasm is like a fiery volcano, constantly emitting energy and passion. It means that when a person is enthusiastic about something, they throw themselves into it completely, never hesitating or having doubts. The grass of hesitation, symbolizing uncertainty and indecision, is unable to grow on the volcano because enthusiasm consumes any trace of uncertainty. In other words, when one is filled with enthusiasm, they have no room for hesitation or second-guessing, allowing them to fully pursue their goals and passions.
