Since nature does not provide man with an automatic form of survival, since he has to support his life by his own effort, the doctrine that concern with one’s own interests is evil means that man’s desire to live is evil—that man’s life, as such, is evil. No doctrine could be more evil than that. Yet that is the meaning of altruism, implicit in such examples as the equation of an industrialist with a robber.

The added line break is arguably fine, just a question of style/formatting. But the omission at the end needs to be indicated: ‘Yet that is the meaning of altruism […].’
