Quote by Thomas Nash

Beauty is but a flower, which wrinkles will devour.

Beauty is but a flower, which wrinkles will devour.

Summary

This quote emphasizes the transient nature of beauty. It suggests that beauty, similar to a delicate flower, is fragile and temporary. Just as flowers eventually wither and get consumed by the passage of time, the same applies to physical beauty. Wrinkles symbolize the inevitable effects of aging and remind us that physical attractiveness is fleeting. The quote serves as a reminder to focus on inner qualities and personal growth, as they are more enduring and valuable than fleeting external appearances.

War has been the most convenient pseudo-solution for the problems of twentieth-century capitalism. It provides the incentives to modernization and technological revolution which the market and the pursuit of profit do only fitfully and by accident, it makes the unthinkable (such as votes for women and the abolition of unemployment) not merely thinkable but practicable. What is equally important, it can re-create communities of men and give a temporary sense to their lives by uniting them against foreigners and outsiders. This is an achievement beyond the power of the private enterprise economy when left to itself.
