"للجشع، لا حياة لهم، فهم لا يشعرون أبدًا بالرضا، بل يظلون عالقين في مطاردة دائمة للمزيد من الثروة"
— Erich Fromm
Simplified Meaning:
When someone is greedy, they always want more and more money. They are never happy with what they have. This constant desire to get richer can take over their life. For example, think about a person who already has a lot of money but keeps working all the time, missing out on relaxing, and spending time with family and friends. Even though they get richer, they don’t get to enjoy life because they're always focused on making more money. To feel happier, it's better to appreciate what you have and enjoy the moments in life instead of just chasing after more wealth.
