Summary

This quote suggests that the truth is often seen as a forceful conqueror because we no longer possess the ability to embrace it with open-mindedness and acceptance. Instead of welcoming the truth as a valuable guest that brings wisdom and insight, we may resist it or try to manipulate it to fit our own narratives. By acknowledging our tendency to resist the truth, the quote urges us to regain the art of receiving it as a respected and transformative visitor in order to foster personal and collective growth.
