Man is a small, pitiful creature. He only thinks about his own well-being. He has a big ego that he satisfies and feeds all his life, he doesn't look beyond himself, he doesn't care what happens to others and how he will be, he doesn't want to bare his feelings and care for the other person, he doesn't recognize other people's problems until it affects him directly.

People, sometimes, are so weak that they build their happiness on the misfortune ...
