This brief passage rejects the idea of obtaining guarantees before starting a project: there is no assurance that an idea will work, a job will be secure or everyone will like you. The closing toaster joke makes that search for certainty ironic. The point is to accept the uncertainty of taking initiative, without turning it into a promise of success.
Key points
- An idea or project cannot begin with a guaranteed result or everyone's approval.
- The closing toaster joke draws an ironic distinction between a product guarantee and uncertainty in personal choices.
