But one who doesn’t have the strength of spirit and pride may be anything but is not worth being called a man. One who spends sleepless nights for fear of his enemy, one who has no one to cry with him in his sorrows and the world laughs at his misfortunes, whose peace is suppressed beneath others’ shoes, one who has forgotten himself totally engrossed in his indulgences, one who licks the shoes of the government officials and oppresses those below him cannot be considered happy.
