how could he find his highest good in giving up his life for the

material prosperity of everybody else! What he considered an

unimportant thing for himself he could not think worthy of every

sacrifice on behalf of other people。 And that which he would

consider of the deepest importance to himself as an

individual……oh; he said; you mustnt consider the munity

munity wants; it wants something solid; it wants good wages;
