About This Quote

The idea of being 'naked' describes a person who doesn't have anything to hide. A person who is completely honest and straightforward about their own faults as well as those of others. The idea of being naked is similar to the idea of being free because no matter how good you look, no matter how many things you have, there will always be someone better than you.
