"人類の根本的な問題は過剰である。"
— Bertrand Russell
Simplified Meaning:
People often struggle because they always want more than they need. For example, some people might buy too many clothes or gadgets, even though they can only use a few at a time. In history, kings and rulers sometimes invaded other lands to get more gold and power, even though they already had plenty. This constant need for more can lead to problems like waste, greed, and even harming the environment. If people focused on using and appreciating what they already have, they might be happier and make better choices. By being content with enough, we can lead simpler, more fulfilling lives.
