Quote by Christopher Dawson
If man limits himself to a satisfied animal existence, and asks from life only what such an existence can give, the higher values of life at once disappear.
Summary
This quote suggests that if a person settles for a basic, contented life similar to that of an animal, and desires only what such a life can offer, they will lose sight of the deeper, more meaningful aspects of life. By not striving for greater purposes and values, one misses out on experiencing the full potential of human existence.
