Re: Opening quote by Alphonse Elric

What Al says is extremely true, yet not always; -To gain something, something of equal value must be lost, this is part of every day life as we live. If we go to school and give it our all, usually that all comes back in a good way. If you train as hard as you can for something you love to do, then basically what will happen is you become extremely good. Blood, sweat, and hard work are what drive this world. Things usually are never just received, but worked for, and sometimes, they just come.

Re: Opening quote by Alphonse Elric

"Humankind cannot gain anything without first giving something in return."

I absoutely agree with it.. sometimes I wonder if the Natural disaster struck because of the lack of Humankind love or what.. And it seems that it's getting back to worse..

Re: Opening quote by Alphonse Elric

The quote was cool but like Hoenheim said...everything doesnt follow the Law of Equivalent Change... like how many people study so hard for the exam and only a few pass..

But i think the quote was cool! ^^

What a cool quote! If you want something in life, you first must learn to give this something. If you want love, you must give love. If you want money, you must give money. I think this is a fundamental law of nature used even today.
this is a true to life quote because to gain anything you must give somthing,
like if you need money you have to work for it.

Re: Opening quote by Alphonse Elric

“Humankind cannot gain anything without first giving something in return."

That is true ^_^ If a person wants to invent something he has to give a lot of hard work in order to achieve his/her goals. But the thing is that humans want more and more.
What is technology doing? All we are doing nowadays is breaking the ground wherever we go and use it for the “benefit” of others. Psshh.
“Nature has everything for a person’s need but not for everybody’s greed.” --- Mahatma Gandhi.
Anyways it doesn’t relate to things on a big scale but to small things, like if you want to pick up a glass of water you need to move your body to get it.

But people are starting to gain without giving something in return and therefore harming the society and the planet itself. Global warming, garbage problems, diseases like AIDS and so on. If it goes on there is sure to be a not-so-good future >_>

Indeed, this quote is very wise, but not necessarily true. As mentioned before by many AO'ers, sometimes, things do come accidentally, but aren't always permanent. In order to recieve, you must give. That's just the way it works.

Re: Opening quote by Alphonse Elric

I think it varies, most of the time it's true, sometimes it's not. I don't think I did anything wrong to deserve to have cancer. Sometimes circumstances happen that go beyond any kind of equivilant exchange. There are always exceptions to every rule.

I think the quote is very powerful and real
in the real world when we try to gain somethin we have to pay an equivalent price
for example humans use technology to benefit themselves in life like cars,computers,tvs, heat and other stuff. while we are gaining these things in life we are also payin a heavy price..... we are destroyin the earth by usin up its resources.

Dante and Hoenhiem had it right in FMA, there is no equivalent exchange in the "larger picture"; it only applies within yourself, not without.
SO very true life is not fair this is to weed out the weak, but there still is an equivilence; one life passes another comes to be, lost money is usually found, and you cannot know true love without experiencing hate.
