Summary

This quote suggests that everything in the world, whether it's a natural object or a human experience, possesses its own unique beauty waiting to be revealed through art or expression. Just like a princess in a fairy tale, which remains trapped until a hero comes to rescue her, all aspects of creation are bound until someone with the right skills and vision sets them free. The quote highlights the power of artists and poets as liberators who can bring out the hidden beauty of the world by crafting it into visual or verbal art forms.
