Somebody comes and praises you and puffs up your ego, and you feel so great. And then somebody comes and punctures you, and you are simply flat on the ground. You are not your own master. Anybody can insult you and make you sad, angry, irritated, annoyed, violent, mad. And anybody can praise you and make you feel at the heights, can make you feel that you are the greatest, that Alexander the Great was nothing compared to you. And you act according to others’ manipulations. This is not real action.
