... (Thucydides 243). Basically, he states that humans will always be compelled to sin (breaking laws, harming others, etc.) because of the feeling that something can be gained out of it. Thucydides embellishes this concept even more, stating "…men were often killed on grounds of personal hatred or else by their debtors because of the money that they owed" (241). This is a direct example of personal wants and greed leading to massive sin. It is exactly this selfish concept which lays the foundation for defining human nature according to Thucydides.

... Yet, again to counter that is a quote by the great American writer Ernest Hemingway, "All modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn…it’s the best book we’ve had…There has been nothing as good since" (The Green Hills of Africa [Scribner’s. 1953] 22).
