"تنبل بودن و فقیر بودن همیشه ملامت شدهاند و بنابراین هر کسی با نهایت دقت تلاش میکند که فقر خود را از دیگران و تنبلی خود را از خودش پنهان کند"
— Samuel Johnson
Simplified Meaning:
People don't like being seen as lazy or poor, so they try very hard to hide these things from others and even from themselves.
