About this Quote
This quote by Huston Smith speaks with the significance of having an objective in life. It suggests that in order to live a purposeful life, one must have a set of ideas that they live by. This might be a religious belief, a political idea, or an ethical idea. Having a collection of ideas to live by provides life function and instructions. It supplies a sense of identification and a factor to pursue something higher. Without a set of ideas to obey, life can come to be aimless as well as worthless. This quote encourages us to find something to believe in as well as to live our lives with purpose.
