About This Quote

The idea of humanity is essentially the idea that humans are by nature good. However, the idea of humanity is not, in fact, true. The human race has been raised to believe it must always strive for goodness. It must never do anything that is evil.

Yet, at times, this ideal seems to be contradicted by our progression towards becoming more and more bestial. We have become so obsessed with our ability to utilize our capabilities that we forget that they were given us for a reason. This world can be improved by improving ourselves, not by forcing everyone around us to be perfect.
