What does this quote mean exactly??

The same universal laws govern the simple life issues and the complex ones, so it make sense to observe them and try to understand them in the simple issues first and later try to move on to the complexities of life. Let say someone tries to understand humanity as a whole; it is a very complex issue, but understanding one person--myself, for example, is a bit easier, isn't it? That is my understanding of the quote, but I enjoyed other answers also, they seem to answer your question well, each from a different angle and to me it is a great way to learn. Thank you for asking good questions.

Interesting. Where did you find the quote?

I can't remember where the quote is from, but I agree with it entirely.  It means "no holds barred", in a way, and I find it true in love and war.  It's sad to say that's true in love, but, experience tells me it is true, and our culture supports it entirely.  Our international bodies try to make it untrue in war, such as in the Geneva Convention, but, war is hell everything's "fair" in hell, so . . ..  God Bless you.

I cannot begin to grasp what you are asking.\n\nIs it a statement, or a question?

Good question:\n\nMaybe Society or people in general.  Also, if its a quote it could just mean that you dont know who originally said it.

It means, that taking into consideration the words quoted, you can improve the topics mentioned in the quote. For example, if I tell you: "All men were created equals and should be trated as equals, you can "build" on these words by saying,eg, "doesn't matter if a person is black or white, should have the same rights.

niiiiiiiiiiiiice quote.  I like it a lot.  I'll have to get that book.\n\nBasically, it says that if you are the type of person to let things roll over and over and over in your head without ever coming to some sort of resolution, you will always get behind in everything you really want to do in life.\n\nIn terms of respect, there are a couple of thoughts on this.  How will you respect yourself if you don't respect others?  How will you be perceived as an honorable person if you let others run over you or you straddle the fence on important issues all the time?  \n\nI disagree with one statement.  "You have to demand respect in this world,......"  Actually, I don't demand respect.  I don't have to because I can look at you or speak to you in such a way that the respect comes natural.  \n\nI command respect by my mere presence.

I am not sure what you will find historically about this quote, however, I know that back in the '50's it was a saying that many "southern" mothers would quote.  The saying, as far as I know and heard my grandmothers and their friends talk about, means that if you 'dig deep into the lie a person obviously is telling, or has told,  you will find that he/she is capable of, or has already stolen. " My mom would carry that statement further and even today, I find myself quoting it: " if you lie, you'll cheat, if you cheat, you'll steal..." I think that also falls into the same category.  In a nutshell, if you are capable of lying, then there is nothing that you probably will not do.  I hope this helps.  It brought back memories.

it's meant to express the inherent inequality that society creates in mankind.  It's meant to satirize the ideological view of equality amongest men.  basically it's saying, "we're all equal, but some are better than others." it's a great quote i think.

Basically the quote tells you that you can only grow or advance as high or as far as your dreams will take you. So to make great strides in life you must dream big. It also tells you that it is not nearly enough to dream, but you must put some sweat equity into achieving that dream. \n\nIt figures into my life through every scientific or engineering advance that man makes. The fact that I am communicating with you right now over the internet is attributable to that quote. Someone had to dream of such a great endeaver, and then had to work hard enough to carry that out.
