Summary

This quote emphasizes the importance of cultural understanding when it comes to leadership. It suggests that simply copying and applying one country's political or governmental system onto another will not guarantee successful leadership. Instead, effective leaders must take the time to comprehend the unique characteristics, values, and traditions of the people they are leading. By doing so, they can tailor their leadership approach accordingly and make decisions that align with the cultural context of the given society, ultimately demonstrating true leadership capabilities.

Correct yourself and your world will change.

Since narcissists deep down, feel themselves to be faultless

Since narcissists deep down, feel themselves to be faultless, it is inevitable that when they are in conflict with the world they will invariably perceive the conflict as the world's fault. Since they must deny their own badness, they must perceive others as bad. They project their own evil onto the world. They never think of themselves as evil, on the other hand, they consequently see much evil in others.
