Quote by Thomas Fuller

If an a-s goes travelling he will not come home a horse.

If an a-s goes travelling he will not come home a horse.

Summary

This quote is a metaphorical expression that means if someone undergoes new experiences or ventures into different environments, it does not necessarily change their fundamental nature or identity. Just like a donkey (a-s) that travels to different places will not transform into a horse, a person's core traits or essence remain intact despite their explorations or escapades. It suggests that personal growth or exploration can bring new perspectives, but it does not fundamentally change who we are at our core.
