“Cut your coat to suit your cloth.” is an old English proverb. Obviously it is not really talking about coats but is telling us to be content with what we have got. It’s a good proverb because so many people want what they cannot have, and this makes them discontented. Therefore, they don’t enjoy the things they do have.
The passage suggests that _____.
|
a lot of people who should be happy are not.
|
everyone is equally happy.
|
happiness depends upon possessions.
|
proverbs are really useless.
