Envy as Theft — Dean Koontz

“envy was mental theft. If you coveted another man's possessions... then you should be willing to take on his responsibilities, heartaches, and troubles along with his money."

My Thoughts:

This is one of the reasons why one should not envy others. Whatever one envies there is also so much more behind that persons life. If one realizes that there are always some burdens or bad sides, one doesn't realize the good things that oneself has already. The source of envy is always only one side of things, and one never fully know what lays behind that.
