"男性は身体によっても所有物によっても幸福を見つけないが正直さと知恵によって幸福を見つける"
— Democritus

Simplified Meaning:
People don't find true happiness through physical pleasures or by having lots of things. Instead, real joy comes from being a good person and making smart choices. For example, think about someone who buys a new car. They might feel happy for a while, but that feeling doesn’t last very long. In contrast, helping a friend in need or learning something new can bring a much deeper and longer-lasting happiness. Someone who lives honestly and thoughtfully usually feels more content because their happiness isn’t based on temporary things. So, focusing on being kind and wise can lead to a more fulfilling life.
