Quote by Che Guevara
While a person dies every day during the eight or more hours in which he or she functions as a commodity, individuals come to life afterward in their spiritual creations. But this remedy bears the germs of the same sickness: that of a solitary being seeking harmony with the world.
Summary
This quote suggests that in the busy, work-oriented hours of the day, individuals often feel like a mere commodity or object. However, outside of this capitalist framework, people find solace and meaning through their creative or spiritual endeavors. Yet, even in these pursuits, there is a hint of the underlying problem: the desire for connection and harmony with the world. It implies that despite seeking fulfillment outside of the capitalist system, individuals are still driven by a deep-rooted need for connection and a sense of belonging.
