Meaning
This reads as a warning that status does not change character. It can be taken to mean that ceremony, rank, or wealth may dress someone up, but they remain what they are underneath, while dignity can survive hard conditions without being diminished. It lands in politics, workplaces, or any setting where appearance and title try to substitute for substance.
