Since <em>the fate</em> is third-person singular it needs to be followed by a verb <em>was
</em>
2) <em>neither men or conflict have dimmed...
</em>
It is a general rule that when we have a neither/nor (either/or) construction, the verb agrees with the closest subject ( in this case<em> the conflict</em>) which is in the third person singular, so it needs to be followed by the verb<em> has</em>
3) ... <em>the twin eighty-year-old brothers suggests.</em>..
The subject here is<em> the twin brothers</em> (they) which is third person plural, so the following verb must be <em>suggest</em>

So in a sense, what we define as a good life is subjective (coming from within), and it<u> should be based on how we really feel on the inside, by asking; Do I feel good on the inside?</u>
