"Life has no meaning unless one lives it with a will, at least to the limit of one's will. Virtue, good, evil are nothing but words, unless one takes them apart in order to build something with them; they do not win their true meaning until one knows how to apply them"
- Paul Gauguin
About this Quote
This quote by Paul Gauguin speaks to the importance of living life with purpose and objective. He suggests that life has no significance unless we proactively choose to live it with a will, pushing ourselves to the restrictions of our capabilities. He likewise emphasizes that words like merit, excellent, and also wickedness are meaningless unless we take them apart and use them to build something. Just after that do they acquire their real meaning. This quote encourages us to take action and maximize our lives, as opposed to merely letting life pass us by. It reminds us that we have the power to form our lives as well as produce our very own definition. We have to take the campaign to make something of our lives as well as utilize our words to construct something meaningful.

"Life is life - whether in a cat, or dog or man. There is no difference there between a cat or a man. The idea of difference is a human conception for man's own advantage"
