About this Quote

This quote by Luigi Pirandello recommends that the history of humanity is shaped by the ideas that have been established and shared throughout time. Ideas have the power to shape the way we think, the method we act, and the way we live our lives. Concepts can be revolutionary, motivating people to make modifications in their lives and on the planet. Concepts can likewise be harmful, leading to dispute and suffering. Concepts have been the driving force behind the development of humankind, from the invention of the wheel to the development of modern-day innovation. Ideas have actually likewise been the source of much of our suffering, from wars to overbearing programs. Ideas have the power to form our future, and the history of humanity is a testament to the power of ideas.
