About This Quote
The quote "As long as there's breath in the flesh, there'll always be desire for more" is a profound statement by the great philosopher and historian. It’s like a letter to all of us who live in a world that can never stay still. We have to keep moving forward in order to find fulfillment, even if we have found it in the past. Being satisfied is a gift, but not everyone is able to enjoy it. Some people do not have the patience to wait until they have fulfilled their dreams, and they die empty and less fulfilled.
