"Si nous n'étions pas tous si excessivement intéressés par nous-mêmes, la vie serait si inintéressante qu'aucun de nous ne pourrait la supporter."
— Arthur Schopenhauer
Simplified Meaning:
People find life exciting because they care a lot about themselves. If people didn't care so much about themselves, life would be boring and hard to handle.
