Zeal is a volcano, the peak of which the grass of indecisive

Summary

This quote implies that zeal, or intense enthusiasm or passion, is a powerful force that doesn't leave room for indecisiveness. Just like a volcano, which is constantly active and erupting, zeal is all-consuming and burns away any uncertainty or hesitation. It suggests that when one is truly driven and committed to something, there is no room for doubts or contemplation. Zeal fuels action and determination, preventing the growth of indecisiveness, and propelling individuals towards their goals with focused and unwavering dedication.
