About this Quote

Theodor Herzl's quote talks to the value of pursuing a more exemplary society, instead of just organizing a brand-new social system. He suggests that those who want to risk their lives for a cause ought to not be pleased with merely producing a new system, but must rather pursue a more righteous one. This indicates that a brand-new social system alone is insufficient to bring about meaningful change. Rather, it is necessary to develop a society that is based upon justice and morality. Herzl's quote emphasizes the significance of striving for a more righteous society, instead of just settling for a brand-new social system. It is a reminder that those who want to combat for a cause ought to not be content with just producing a brand-new system, but ought to rather pursue a more exemplary one.
