Simplified Meaning:

Over time, people often change their beliefs or opinions not because they were persuaded with logical arguments, but simply because they get used to new ideas. Imagine a new technology, like electric cars. At first, many people might be skeptical or resistant to the idea of driving electric cars instead of gasoline ones. However, as years go by and electric cars become more common, people see their neighbors and friends driving them, hear about their benefits, and gradually start to accept them. It’s not necessarily the detailed facts and reasons that change their minds, but rather the passage of time and the way it shapes everyday experiences. This shows that being patient and allowing time to work can sometimes be more effective in changing minds than trying to argue a point forcefully. So, if you want to see a change in people's attitudes or beliefs, sometimes it’s best to introduce the idea and let time do its work.
