About This Quote

There is no competition in work. Whoever loves to labour does so as grace of life. The human race can only rise to greatness by uniting. Competition is a zero sum game and we will only succeed when we work together.

Competition takes everything and leaves nothing but broken dreams and shattered lives. The world cannot progress if we do not work together and unite against the forces that would take all that we have, leaving us alone and destitute.
