Huxley suggests that the outcomes of political modifications are often unforeseeable and can be challenging to anticipate. This quote can be analyzed as an alerting to both sides of a political debate to be careful in their expectations of the result of a political modification. It can also be viewed as a tip that political changes can have unanticipated consequences, both positive and unfavorable.

Eventually, Huxley's quote encourages us to be conscious of the potential results of political modifications and to be gotten ready for the unforeseen.
