Quote by Benjamin Disraeli

Assassination has never changed the history of the world.

Assassination has never changed the history of the world.

Summary

This quote suggests that acts of assassination, while significant and impactful in the immediate moment, do not fundamentally alter the course of history. It implies that forces and dynamics larger than an individual's actions, such as social, political, and economic factors, have a more profound and lasting influence on the trajectory of historical events. The quote reminds us that while individual actions like assassination may capture our attention, they are unlikely to single-handedly shape the overall course of human history.

I needed to step away from music because the truth was I couldn't be the dad I wanted to be to my kids. My truth was that I could not reconcile the two worlds - the entertainment world and being the dad I wanted to be in the present. You can't substitute time, you just can't.
