bir deneyimden ancak o deneyimin içinde barındırdığı kadar bilgelik çıkarmaya dikkat etmeliyiz daha fazlasını değil ;yoksa kızgın sobanın üzerine oturan kediye benzeriz. Kedi bir daha asla kızgın sobanın üzerine oturmayacaktır , bu doğru ; ama bir daha soğuk sobanın üzerine de oturmayacaktır

In short, consuming the news widens the pool of potential competitors to include the entire world. We compare ourselves to people who have absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with us As a result we feel smaller than we really are.
