What is the meaning of the quote All roads lead to Rome?

Answer 1

In ancient times, the vast Roman Empire spread out from Rome through its series of roads. So, all these roads led back to Rome. The idiom is essentially saying that although there may be different methods of doing something in the end they give the same result.

Answer 2

It means different paths can take one to the same goal/there are many different routes to the same goal.

It first appeared in English as "Right as diverse pathes leden the folk the righte wey to Rome" in a book by Geoffrey Chaucer.
