There's only one great evil in the world today. Despair.

Evelyn Waugh
About This Quote

There is only one great evil in the world today. Despair. Some people may argue that we live in a time of peace, but that is most definitely not the truth. We are constantly being bombarded by war, climate change, religious violence, and countless other forms of hatred and intolerance. The world is full of despair, but the problem is that many people are too caught up in their own despair to do anything about it.
