Some say they do well, if not mean doing whatever can help to a certain individual at a given time, however, mean doing what is good to all of mankind, and so that in this there is nothing mysterious about it. Human beings, after all, are not devoid of sense, and realize that you can be really happy or safe only in a society in which everyone is acting properly and for this try to behave. Now it is true that security and happiness can only come by honesty, fairness and mutual kindness of individuals, classes and nations. And 'one of the most important truths of the world. But as an explanation of how we feel about the right and the injustice, to right the wrong and is out of place. If I ask: "Why should I be altruistic?" And you say, "Why is beneficial to society," I can reply: "Why should I care about what is beneficial to society, when no help to me personally?" and you then you should say: "Why should I be altruistic," which brings us back to the starting point. Say something true, but you do not step forward. Clive Staples Lewis
