Very few live by choice. Every man is placed in his present condition by causes which acted without his foresight, and with which he did not always willingly cooperate; and therefore you will rarely meet one who does not think the lot of his neighbor better than his own.

很少有人是根据自己的选择生活的。每个人之所以处于目前的境况，都是由于一些原因造成的，而这些原因的发生与他的远见无关，而且他并不总是愿意与之合作;因此，你很少会遇到这样一个人，他不把邻居的利益看得比自己的利益更重要。
