- Andrei Platonov

About this Quote

This quote by Andrei Platonov speaks to the concept of despondence and despair. When one has absolutely nothing to live for, they can become overloaded with negative thoughts and feelings. This can cause a sense of being caught in one's own mind, not able to get away the darkness that has actually taken control of. It can be difficult to discover a way out of this mindset, as it can be difficult to discover a function or something to pursue. This quote speaks to the concept that when one has nothing to live for, they can end up being consumed by their own thoughts and feelings, unable to find an escape. It is a reminder that even in the darkest of times, there is still hope and a method to move forward.
