About this Quote

This quote by Helen Keller speaks to the power of human passiveness. Despite the advances of science, it has actually not been able to cure the lethargy of humans. Apathy is an absence of interest or interest for something, and it can be a powerful force in avoiding progress. It can cause a lack of motivation, a lack of action, and a lack of look after the world around us. It can result in an absence of empathy and understanding for those who are suffering. It can lead to an absence of issue for the environment and the future of our world. Apathy can be an effective force in preventing us from making the changes we require to make in order to create a better world. It is up to us to acknowledge the power of lethargy and to act to combat it. We must want to take risks, to be available to new ideas, and to care about the world around us. Only then can we wish to make a difference and develop a better future.
