Humans could never accept the world as it was and live in it. They were always breaking it and living amongst the shattered pieces.

About This Quote

The concept of humans breaking the world into pieces is one that has been around for quite some time. The ancient Greeks believed that the world was shattered into different pieces by an angry God named Cronos, who was trying to get rid of the creatures he created. The Romans also believed in this concept and believed that humans were fragments of God’s creation.
