I'll take quality over quantity every time. I will take substance over form every time. They are pretty much the same thing. Love is quality, lust is quantity. Legalism is form, justice is substance. Intelligence is quantity, wisdom is quality, knowledge is form, understanding is substance. Miserable long life is nothing compared with a happy short life, particularly if it is filled with love, justice, wisdom, and understanding.

hello there...
well, i think that life really need quality... because for example, let's say you have a lot of friends (quantity) but all of them bail out on you if you ask them any help or favor... let's say that you have 1 or 2 best friends... even though they are few but whenever you ask them any help, they sure come front and help you (quality)... so i think that quality really important than quantity... if you want to use the quantity, it has to depends on the situation you're working on... well, this is my opinion...

It's QUALITY all the way. Life would be so much monotonous and disgraceful without quality. It adds so much happiness to our lives. I have always tried to give i my best in whatever I do. Quality speaks louder than quantity anytime.

I have better appreciation of quality although I enjoy quantity too. Take the item of mangoes, I appreciate sweet mangoes but I also like having lots of them. Cheers!!

I will always prefer quality over quantity. I would rather have a small amount of something wonderful than a lot of something bad. If I had the choice I would take a shorter life of better quality than a long one of disease and illness
But we do not have this choice. We can do the best we can with our life but there are many things we cannot change no matter how much we wish we could.

I quite agree that we can be positive no matter what, although sometimes it seems hard. I am suffering but severe Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and there are times when I get down and emotional and despairing but I get over it and go on coping.
Even so I would probably prefer a short quality life over a long one full of illness. Having experienced both kinds in my life and I know which I would rather have.

I would like to live a peaceful and happy life, how many days or years i lived that does not matter to me if in life there is no success nor achievement.

There is no question in my mind that it's the quality that matters most to me. It doesn't matter how many years I live. I do hope that I live a long life, don't get me wrong, but I would much prefer to live 40-50 years and be surrounded by love, happiness, friendship, and such. Then I know I can die, knowing that I was surrounded by people who made me happy and who made my life richer.
