His word choice reflects this idea that humans can only handle with so much. His speech began with the words “so true it is, and so terrible too”, which immediately tells the reader that the words following his statement are true. Then, he continues to write his speech while referring to a larger group by using words such as our rather than my. He goes on to state, “To a sensitive being, pity is not seldom pain.” His quote demonstrates how any human being who is sensitive is often hurt by their own pity, it does not only apply to him. Furthermore, he reinforces this sense of a larger group to be the human race collectively when he writes about the selfishness of the human heart and the common sense humans posses. When he writes, he is referring to the souls and hearts of all people, not specifically his own. In addition, the validity of the speech's application to the mankind makes it apply to all humans, rather than the lawyer
