Summary

This quote suggests that all men share common characteristics and tendencies when it comes to their lower or baser nature, such as selfishness or greed. However, what truly sets men apart from each other is their higher character traits, such as integrity, compassion, wisdom, or moral values. While men may exhibit similarities in their flaws, it is their personal virtues, ethics, and the choices they make that ultimately differentiate them and create the variations among individuals.
