A sociey is the largest group of people who share a common way of life. This, however, does not mean that all the people in a sociey live in exactly the same way, as a proverb says that Many people, many tastes. Indeed, although people in a group or community do conform to a common way of life, most of them have their own way of doing things.And some of them may even betray their common belief.This is why we say that Many a miler, many a thief and that One man's meat is another man's poison.We believe that Many hands make light work and that Two heads are better than one, but we also think that Many hands make slight work and that Many men, many minds. The fact that Many wells, many buckets does cause problems in a community. And this is why we need disciplines and rules in any social group to tie people together for a common goal.
