Quote by Oliver Wendell Holmes

It is very lonely sometimes, trying to play God.


It is very lonely sometimes, trying to play God.

Summary

This quote suggests that taking control over others' lives or circumstances, or trying to manipulate outcomes to suit one's own desires, can be isolating. Being in a position of power or authority may create a sense of loneliness because it involves shouldering significant responsibility and making difficult decisions that may not always align with the wants or needs of others. It highlights the difficulty and potentially isolating nature of playing a role that exceeds one's natural limitations and boundaries.
