Great Quotations.Qoute #1 by Hemingway,the way old persons become more wise as age grows is through their experiences of different situations in life,analysing them&coming to a careful conclusions,thus they get wiser & older at the same time.Quote # 2 by Albert Camus,it is just to struggle for obtaining peace ,as prayers don’t work,showing the power of people over government in a democracy is the only way to obtain the goal for peace.Quote #3 ,Dostoevsky,His idea of love coming only through sufferings reflects his emotional journey in various phases of his life.Quote #5,If Truth can only be obtained by defending it ,it is morally essential,often silence is the only way to feel rewarded?,I don’t know if it can be done easily?.
