Half of the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm. But the harm does not interest them.

Summary

This quote suggests that a significant amount of harm inflicted upon others derives from individuals who seek validation and a sense of importance. These people may not have malicious intentions, as their sole focus is on satisfying their own need for significance. Consequently, they are indifferent to the harm caused in the pursuit of their personal agendas or desires. In essence, their lack of concern for the consequences perpetuates a cycle of harm inflicted upon others.
