Summary

This quote, attributed to Benjamin Franklin, conveys the importance of unity and collaboration. It suggests that in times of difficulty or facing a common threat, it is essential for individuals to band together in order to overcome challenges successfully. The phrase "hang together" metaphorically indicates the need to stick together, support one another, and collectively work towards a shared goal. Conversely, "hang separately" implies that if people fail to unite, they will face dire consequences individually. Ultimately, the quote emphasizes the inherent strength and advantage of solidarity and cooperation in the face of adversity.

'Tis said of love that it sometimes goes, sometimes flies; runs with one, walks gravely with another; turns a third into ice, and sets a fourth in a flame: it wounds one, another it kills: like lightning it begins and ends in the same moment: it makes that fort yield at night which it besieged but in the morning; for there is no force able to resist it.
