Quote by Andrea Scholer

It is difficult for intellect, technology, and peace to coexist. Not because peace is static where the other two require constant stimulation. Peace can embrace change. It is because we live in a world where intellect and technology compete for power. And peace does not allow for inequality or competition.

It is difficult for intellect, technology, and peace to coex

Summary

This quote suggests that it is challenging for intellect, technology, and peace to coexist harmoniously. The difficulty lies not in peace being unchanging while the others thrive on constant stimulation, but rather in the fact that our world is characterized by a power struggle between intellect and technology. Peace, on the other hand, does not permit inequality or competition, which conflicts with the nature and goals of intellect and technology. Therefore, achieving a balance among these three elements becomes a complex endeavor.

Sometimes I pause and sadly think of all the things that might have been. Of all the golden chances I let slip by, And which never returned again. It fills me with gloom when I ponder this, Till I look on the other side. How I might have been completely engulfed by misfortune's surging tide.
