Summary

This quote reflects on the impact of strict rules or commandments on one's enjoyment of life. It suggests that the existence of ten ancient commandments, referring to religious or moral guidelines, can restrict or limit the fun in life. However, with the arrival of prosperity, indicating abundance or wealth, the restrictions imposed by these commandments may no longer be relevant or noticeable, resulting in the absence of any restriction on one's enjoyment. In essence, the quote alludes to the perception that adherence to strict rules can diminish the joy or freedom in life, whereas abundance or prosperity can alleviate those restrictions.
