We adore chaos because we love to produce order.

Summary

This quote suggests that as human beings, we are drawn to chaos and disorder because we have an inherent desire to impose our own sense of order upon it. Rather than shying away from chaos, we actually have an affinity for it because it presents an opportunity for us to exercise our problem-solving and organizational abilities. The act of restructuring and bringing order to chaotic situations satisfies our need for control and gives meaning to our lives.
