The quote is a metaphor for Dorothy's awareness that she is no longer in her familiar house of Kansas, however in a weird and unfamiliar place. It is a reminder that life can take us to unforeseen locations, which we must be prepared to deal with the unknown. The quote likewise acts as a tip that we ought to never take our house and our liked ones for granted, as we never understand when we might be removed from them.
