“The only freedom which deserves the name, is that of pursuing our own good in our own way, so long as we do not attempt to deprive others of theirs, or impede their efforts to obtain it. Each is the proper guardian of his own health, whether bodily, or mental and spiritual. Mankind are greater gainers by suffering each other to live as seems good to themselves, than by compelling each to live as seems good to the rest. ”

-- John Miller

Does "each other" mean the other people?

这句话的意思是:

"严格在自己的准则下生活, 而不是将其强加于他人, 人类社会将会互赢互利,和平相处."
