"مرد متوسط نمیخواهد آزاد باشد او فقط میخواهد در امان باشد"
— H. L. Mencken
Simplified Meaning:
Many people care more about feeling safe and comfortable than having lots of freedom to do whatever they want. Imagine a person who has a secure job and a nice place to live. They might prefer keeping things the same rather than starting a new, uncertain business that could make them richer but also could make them lose everything. In history, this was seen when people accepted kings or strong leaders even if they had to give up some personal freedoms because the leaders offered protection and stability. For example, during troubled times, people often prefer strict rules if they think those rules will keep them safe. This idea suggests that when faced with a choice, many will choose security over the opportunity to do anything they please.
