The great pity of the selfish person is
not that he robs Others Of pleasure or
comfort, but that he is so thoroughly
unhappy himself. The selfish person is
never satisfied, never content. When he
has greedily taken all, he still wants
more, while the unselfish person finds
real happiness in giving to others the
little he has. From purely selfish
point of view the unselfsh person is the
happier.
