“If you run across anybody who’s trying to get anything done, he’s trying to get something done, he’s not trying to categorize the great difference between himself and the people he faces. See that? He’s not trying to categorize this. That’s perfectly safe operating frame of mind. I mean, he’s getting something done and so forth.

“Where you find nothing getting done is where the total fixation or nearly all of the fixation of the individual is upon how his possessions, his riches, his position, differentiate him from those and his main activity is in trying to impress this fact upon his fellows. And it’s wonderful when you realize it, but the guy is digging his own grave, sneer by sneer.”

— L. Ron Hubbard
