Never be surprised when you find somebody acting mean.
00:04
We are supposed to act mean.
00:05
We hold a totally unrealistic, bloated and very marvellous image of ourselves.
00:11
God-man made in his own image.
00:14
No, the chimpanzees made us in their own image, obviously.
00:17
That's why I love people who expose their meanness, their cruelty, their blind desires without compunction.
00:26
The problem is with people who pretend and project goodness.
00:30
By the time you hit 15, you should have come to a clear realisation that goodness does not exist by nature.
00:40
Nobody is good. You are not good. Others are not good. I am not good. Nobody is good.
00:44
Oh, he is talking so negatively. What a pessimistic view he holds of humanity.
00:50
I am not pessimistic. I am just realistic.
00:52
I am telling you who you really are and then I am inviting you to rise above yourself.
