The Wisdom of Life and Counsels and Maxims
“Man is by nature a social animal; an individual who is unsocial naturally and not accidentally is either beneath our notice or more than human. Society is something that precedes the individual. Anyone who either cannot lead the common life or is so self-sufficient as not to need to, and therefore does not partake of society, is either a beast or a god. ”
Aristotle

Arthur Schopenhauer
“A man's alter ego is nothing more than his favorite image of himself.”
