Quote by Arthur Dillon

Who dares deny that this is true: The whole is more than all its parts?A whole love than divided love,Or than half love from fifty hearts?Yet who dare either this deny:The part is more than is the whole?That treasures halved with one dear loveAre more than double to the soul?


Who dares deny that this is true: The whole is more than all

Summary

This quote explores the concept that unity and wholeness hold more value than fragmentation or division. It suggests that the sum of all the parts combined together is greater than each individual part alone. It contrasts the idea of a complete and undivided love being more powerful than love that is shared or split among many. It also points out that when something is shared with someone deeply cherished, the significance and emotional impact are multiplied, making the part greater than the whole.
