SELFISH?

Heard from a grown man, "My mother didn't put me in foster care because she wasn't able to adequately care for me; she put me in foster care because she was SELFISH!"

Objectivist translation: "She put me into foster care because she didn't value my well-being above than her own personal freedom!"

Read in an opera program, "The man's father had previously thought that Violetta was with his son because she wanted his money but he soon discovers that she loves the son UNSELFISHLY."

Objectivist translation: "The father discovers that Violetta loves his son for his virtues of character rather than his money."
