We do not simply live for ourselves, but for those who came before us and those who will come after us.
This is a great quote. it focuses on our need to be comfortable and our want for others to be comfortable as well. We live to keep our families name in good terms as well as how we are influenced by what our family has done. We want to make our families proud, whether we'll admit it or not. We want to secure a place in this world, from racing for land in the 1800s to buying a lot nowadays, we want something to have for us. We want to know that we'll have a place, a place to call home. We want that for our children as well. For our children's children, and their children and so on. it is in no ones interest for others to suffer, no normal interest that is. We want not just for us to have a home and something to live for, but for those after us to have something, a legacy, whether it is to carry yours on or to assist in the starting of their own.
