Quote by Seneca
They that mistake life's accessories for life itself are like them that go too fast in a maze: their very haste confuses them
Summary
This quote suggests that those who prioritize the superficial aspects or the peripheral elements of life, rather than focusing on the essence of life, are akin to individuals who rush too quickly through a perplexing maze. By rushing, they only become more disoriented and bewildered. In the same manner, when we become preoccupied with material possessions, societal expectations, or external achievements, we may lose sight of the true meaning and purpose of life. The quote emphasizes the importance of slowing down, reflecting, and recognizing the essential components that give life its true value.
