Quote by Paul Hoffman

Until two days ago what had driven him was the will to survive: deep, animal, full of rage but always part of him had not cared at all whether he lived or died. Now he did care, and very deeply, and so for the first time in a long time he was afraid. To love life is, of course, a wonderful thing, but not on this day of all days.


Until two days ago what had driven him was the will to survi

Summary

This quote illustrates a shift in someone's perspective on life. Until recently, the person had been driven solely by the instinct to survive, with no regard for their own well-being. However, something has changed within them and they now have a deep attachment to life, which makes them fearful. While the ability to appreciate and love life is generally positive, the timing of this newfound attachment is unfortunate, as it coincides with a crucial day that poses significant threats or challenges.
