One can also take that quote in the context of the original story, where the duckling was "ugly" because it didn't fit with the other ducks. It didn't know it was a swan until it was with other swans. I think it's like that. ONe doesn't know where one fits until one meet others like oneself and then, voila, a place where one is "normal," even special in one's difference from the plethora of ducks in the world.
