This is one of my favorite quotes in anime, and there's a lot to unpack here if one views Corin's words as Tomino's own inner monologue. He wanted Turn A Gundam to be a new and accessible hit, and despite its poor TV ratings he did his best not to succumb to the criticism.

This exchange—and others—has a deeper meaning if one views Corin Nander as a representation of Tomino's own life experiences. As he battled depression in the 90s, he relied on the women in his life and aimed to give Turn A Gundam a "feminine" touch.
Turn A Gundam #24 - “Laura's Howl”
The RRET Team wreaks havoc, and drama unfolds as Gavane & Sochie's relationship is discussed among the characters. This is yet another episode with scenario by Tetsuko Takahashi, the show's literary coordinator.

The "Heavenly Maiden" monk Corin brings up is meant to symbolize Dianna, who's inspired in part by Diana Nemorensis, an ancient Latin goddess who later became the Roman goddess of the Moon. Much of this mythology (the "Tree of Origin") is explored later on in the Adeska arc.
