Question

Take a look at the following uses of the term entropy by several historical figures: Anton Chekhov considered by some as being one of the greatest short story writers said, "Only entropy comes easy." Vaclav Havel, playwright and the first president of the Czech Republic said, "Just as the constant increase of entropy is the basic law of the universe, so it is the basic law of life to be ever more highly structured and to struggle against entropy." Rex Stout, an American crime writer said, "The minute those two little particles inside a woman's womb have joined together, billions of decisions have been made. A thing like that has to come from entropy." Choose one of the quotes above and discuss how the use of the word entropy is similar or different than your current understanding of the term and how it applies to the study of chemistry.

Remark
I like the question. It gives those who are good in English a little room to spread their wings. On the other hand it could be said to be confusing, but confusion is find if you leave it alone and let it find its own way.

Answer
Only Entropy is easy. [Entropy is another word for disorder].
Everything else is man's struggle to bring order where there is none.
Everything else is a need for organization, especially in the world of commerce.
Everything else is a clash of wills, especially between those who rule and those who must obey.
Everything else is made difficult by man's superficial need to have things where they should be rather than placing himself where he is freest. 
Everything else is anger between people: wives and husbands, children and parents, nations against nations.
