About this Quote

This quote by Johnny Ball is describing the truth that windmills are not a reliable source of earnings for people in Holland.

Therefore, the owners of the windmills must have a second job in order to make a living. This quote is stressing the significance of having a reputable source of income, and how windmills alone are inadequate to sustain a living. It is also highlighting the significance of having a backup plan in case of an emergency. This quote is a pointer that despite the fact that windmills are a great source of renewable resource, they are not constantly reputable and it is essential to have a backup strategy.
