The moment we want to believe something, we suddenly see all the arguments for it, and become blind to the arguments against it.
当我们想相信某件事时,突然会看到所有支持它的论点,而对反对的论点视而不见。
We are all branches on the great tree of life.
I think we have been through a period where too many people have been given to understand that if they have a problem, it's the government's job to cope with it. 'I have a problem, I'll get a grant.' 'I'm homeless, the government must house me.' They're casting their problem on society. And, you know, there is no such thing as society. There are individual men and women, and there are families. And no government can do anything except through people, and people must look to themselves first. It's our duty to look after ourselves and then, also to look after our neighbour. People have got the entitlements too much in mind, without the obligations.
