"I will never understand people."
"There's nothing to it. All you have to do is take a close look at
yourself and you will understand everyone else. How would Seldon have worked
out his Plan--and I don't care how subtle his mathematics was--if he didn't
understand people; and how could he have done that if people weren't easy to
understand? You show me someone who can't understand people and I'll show you
someone who has built up a false image of himself--no offense intended."
-- Asimov, "Foundation's Edge"
