Nothing is enough for the man to whom enough is too little.

Nothing is enough for the man to whom enough is too little.

Summary

This quote suggests that there are individuals who always desire more, regardless of how much they already possess. Such people are never satisfied with what they have and continuously crave for more. No matter how abundant or sufficient something may be, it will never be sufficient for these individuals because they are driven by insatiable greed or ambition. These individuals have an appetite for excess and are always striving for greater accomplishments, possessions, or achievements. Their constant pursuit of more prevents them from ever finding contentment or experiencing true satisfaction.

Sympathy

Then must you speakOf one that loved not wisely but too well

Then must you speakOf one that loved not wisely but too well,Of one not easily jealous but, being wrought,Perplexed in the extreme; of one whose hand,Like the base Indian, threw a pearl awayRicher than all his tribe; of one whose subdued eyes,Albeit unused to the melting mood,Drop tears as fast as the Arabian treesTheir medicinable gum. Set you down this,And say besides that in Aleppo once,Where a malignant and a turbaned TurkBeat a Venetian and traduced the state,I took by th' throat the circumcised dogAnd smote him thus.

William Shakespeare
