From the stories we have read it appears that most people like Zaroff from The Most Dangerous Game care about themselves. Zaroff cares about himself because he makes sailors crash their ships and captures the survivors. He then hunts the sailors he captures for pleasure. Zaroff also says that "Life is for the strong, to be lived by the strong, and, if need be, taken by the strong. The weak of the world were put here to give the strong pleasure". Also in The Cask of Amontillado there was a murder, which means someone just cared about themselves.
From my own experiences I believe that people truly care about others. Firemen care about others because they go out and save peoples lives. They also stop fires so people do not get their homes burnt down. On 9-11 firemen saved many peoples lives by going into the World Trade Centers and rescuing buisness people from the buildings. On 9-11 they evacuated people from neighboring buildings so they did not get hurt. They did this even though they were in danger and many firemen losst their lives.
