These conquerors of the world are slaves to their passions, and someday their passions will bring them down.

About This Quote

People who are conquerers of the world are slaves to their passions, and someday their passions will bring them down. A conqueror is someone who conquers all the world, but they are slaves to their passions. They are slaves because they are too weak to control their emotions. Their weakness makes them so weak that even though they can see all the things wrong with the world, they cannot stop themselves from doing wrong.
