The poor have a very big defining trait: they don’t realize that everyone in society is trying to harm them.
But the rich are aware of this. They know that others will try to harm them, so they’re selfish and cold-hearted and indifferent to anyone’s feelings—so their emotions live relatively faintly.
The poor always talk about conscience, about emotions, about morality, so they find it hard to get by in society.
Because morality, conscience, and emotions are products of humanity; the workings of heaven do not follow this rule.
