If an individual is in desperate straits, the most effective way to help oneself is by stepping outside of the self to improve the lives of others.

“that's still the case that if you step outside yourself and you try to make the lives of other people better, that's the best possible thing that you can do for yourself.”

Justice involves adhering to due process and merit rather than demanding positive rights through coercion.

“Fundamentally, injustice would be infringing on someone's rights, right? Person A infringing on the rights of person B on their life, liberty, or property. That would be certainly an American classical way of defining an injustice.”
