Quote by Arthur Desmond

Two things greater Than all things are; And the first is love And the second is war.

Two things greater Than all things are; And the first is lov

Summary

This quote suggests that love and war hold a significant place in human experience, surpassing all other things in their impact. Love represents the power of connection, empathy, and selflessness that has the ability to bring people together and create profound happiness. On the other hand, war symbolizes conflict, destruction, and aggression that can cause immense pain and suffering. Both love and war, being extreme and potent forces, can shape the course of individuals and societies.

One is rarely an impulsive innovator after the age of sixty, but one can still be a very fine orderly and inventive thinker.
