They are not God (Chief Red Eagle / Thomas Sowell)

Angry people want you to see
how powerful they are.
 Loving people want you to see
how powerful you are.

--Chief Red Eagle 

         Some of the biggest cases of mistaken identity are among intellectuals who have trouble remembering that they are not God. 

--Thomas Sowell
