About This Quote

The proverb, “There is a great deal of ruin in a nation,” refers to the fact that when a nation is broken and in disarray, its people will suffer. Rather than rebuild the nation again from scratch, the people would be better served by simply picking up where they left off and rebuilding their lives from there.
