"تمایلاتی که انسانها را به سمت صلح سوق میدهند عبارتند از ترس از مرگ، تمایل به چیزهایی که برای زندگی راحت لازم هستند و امید به بهدست آوردن آنها از طریق تلاششان."
— Thomas Hobbes

Simplified Meaning:
People want to live in peace because they are afraid of dying, they want the things that make life comfortable, and they believe if they work hard they can get those things. Imagine a person who works hard at their job. They do this because they want to afford things like a nice home, good food, and other comforts that make life enjoyable. They also care about being safe and not getting hurt, because they want to live a long life. This combination of looking for safety, comforts, and having hope in their hard work pushes them to seek a peaceful life instead of one filled with conflict. By understanding these motivations, people can focus on building a safe and comfortable life through hard work and avoiding trouble.
