Being selfish to me means that you have to look out for yourself and you don't have to sacrifice.
~Herbie Mann
...A selfish person is devoted to oneself. Being selfish is simple. With being selfish comes only caring for one person, and putting you before everyone else. Its sacrifice that's hard. This quote explains that with selfishness, sacrifice is not needed. If you care for no more than one person or one thing, there is no need to sacrifice because you having nothing to love more than yourself and therefore nothing to sacrifice your life for.
This quote is significant to my theme because it reveals exactly what my concept is about. It states that if you are selfish, you don't have to sacrifice. For example, say a man and his family are attacked by a gang on the street. If the man were willing to sacrifice his life for his family, he would let the gang take his life and save his family. But in this case, if the man was selfish, he would run and leave the gang to take his family members' lives...
