Summary

This quote highlights the concept of balance and fairness in nature. It suggests that even something as beautiful and delicate as a flower requires an earthly foundation to thrive. Just like how a flower's roots are rooted in soil and manure, symbolizing the raw and sometimes unpleasant parts of life, it implies that true fairness exists when there is a recognition and acceptance of all aspects of existence, both positive and negative. It serves as a reminder that beauty can arise from adversity and that there is a delicate interconnectedness between all elements of nature.
