Indifference creates an artificial peace.

Indifference creates an artificial peace.

Summary

This quote suggests that when people choose to be indifferent or apathetic towards a situation or problem, it may appear as if everything is peaceful and calm. However, this peace is described as "artificial" because it isn't grounded in genuine understanding, compassion, or engagement. By opting for indifference, individuals may overlook underlying issues, fail to take necessary action, or ignore the needs of others. Ultimately, this quote highlights the danger of indifference, as it hinders progress and true harmony, replacing it with a disguised illusion of tranquility.
